Ingredients

For the meatballs:

  • 1 pound lean ground chicken or ground turkey
  • 6 garlic cloves minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh herbs chopped we love a mix of parsley, oregano and basil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked sweet paprika
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil depending how fat your mince is
  • 1 lemon juice and zest

For the sides:

For serving:

  • extra feta cheese
  • fresh herbs

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix together all the meatball ingredients. For best results we suggest you use a microplane for the garlic and crumble up the feta well. Cover and let rest in the fridge while you prepare everything else.
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Wash and chop your potatoes into 1 inch cubes. Wash the zucchini and cut them in 1/2 inch half moons.
  • Season the veggies with oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
  • On a large sheet pan, add the potatoes and bake for 10-15 minutes.
  • While they bake, remove the meatball mixture from the fridge and form 1 inch balls. Work with wet hands for easy handling.
  • Remove the sheet pan from the oven and add the meatballs and the zucchini.
  • Continue baking at 400°F (200°C) for another 10-15 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Garnish with feta cheese and fresh chopped herbs.
