Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, diced (about 1/2-inch pieces)
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 bell pepper, diced (any color)
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2–3 tbsp olive oil
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Heat 2–3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced sweet potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and get edges turning golden, about 5–7 minutes.
- Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic. Cook and stir until the vegetables are softened, about 3–5 minutes.
- Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet to clear space. Add the ground turkey to the empty side. Break it apart with a spatula.
- Sprinkle the paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper over the turkey and vegetables. Cook the turkey, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 7–10 minutes.
- Mix the turkey and vegetables together and cook for another 1–2 minutes so the flavors meld. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Remove from heat. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve hot.
Notes
If your turkey is very lean, a splash of olive oil helps prevent dryness. For a smokier edge, use smoked paprika. Use pre-diced sweet potatoes for a shortcut.
