A quick, balanced dish that's hearty, flavourful and easy to clean up.

Makes 4 servings.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (454g) ground pork 
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped 
  • 1 zucchini, sliced 
  • 1 sweet potato, diced
  • 1 red onion, sliced 
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced 
  • 2 tbsp olive oil 
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika 
  • 1 tsp ground cumin 
  • 1 tsp ground oregano (or Italian seasoning)
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes (optional, for heat)
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper 
  • fresh parsley or cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, chilli flakes, salt, and pepper.
  3. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spread all the vegetables evenly on the baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and 1/2 of the spice mixture and toss to thoroughly coat.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine the ground pork with the other 1/2 of the spice mixture and the minced garlic. 
  5. Break ground pork into small chunks and scatter over the vegetables.
  6. Place pan in oven and roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until pork is cooked through and vegetables are tender with crispy edges.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro before serving.
