The best part might be those juicy beef meatballs. Or maybe it’s the chunky baby potatoes roasting to golden alongside tender-crisp green beans. It could be the garlicky sun-dried tomato pesto vinaigrette drizzled over top. But it’s definitely the fact that everything cooks on a sheet pan with an absolute minimum of fuss.

Preparation
Mise en place
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Medium-dice the potatoes. In a medium bowl, combine the potatoes, a drizzle of oil, ½ the spices and S&P. Remove the stem ends of the green beans. In a second medium bowl, combine the green beans, a drizzle of oil, the remaining spices and S&P. In a large bowl, combine the beef, ½ the garlic and S&P. Form into 8 meatballs (double for 4 portions) about the size of a golf ball.
Start the sheet pan
Arrange the potatoes on a lined sheet pan and roast, 12 to 14 min., until partially cooked. Remove from the oven, stir and add the meatballs. Roast, 6 to 8 min., until beginning to brown.
Make the vinaigrette
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the pesto and garlic.
Finish the sheet pan & serve
When the meatballs are beginning to brown, remove from the oven and add the green beans. Roast, flipping halfway, 5 to 8 min, until the meatballs* and vegetables are cooked through. Drizzle with the vinaigrette. Divide the sheet pan between your plates. Bon appétit!
