Xanthan Gum Free Basil-Parsley Turkey Meatball Bites with Roasted Potato

These herby turkey meatball bites are the kind of crowd-pleasing appetizer or easy weeknight dinner that looks far more impressive than the effort involved. Ground turkey gets packed with fresh basil, flat-leaf parsley, and a hit of garlic-infused olive oil, then rolled into tender little bites that roast right alongside golden Yukon Gold potatoes on a single sheet pan. The whole thing comes together in one oven run, which means minimal cleanup and maximum flavor payoff. Quick-cooking oats act as the binder here, keeping the meatballs moist and holding them together beautifully without any gums or stabilizers — so if you're navigating a sensitivity to xanthan gum or similar additives, this recipe has you covered from the start. Every ingredient is straightforward and easy to source, with no hidden additives to decode on a label. The potatoes roast up with crispy edges and a buttery center, making them the perfect partner to the fragrant, herb-flecked meatballs. Finish with a scatter of fresh parsley and serve straight from the pan for a dish that's as satisfying to look at as it is to eat.
