Ingredients

Scale

Meat

  • 1 lb ground turkey

Vegetables

  • 4 medium potatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Spices & Seasonings

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: 1/4 teaspoon red chili flakes

Oils

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat to prepare for sautéing the aromatics and vegetables.
  2. Sauté onion and garlic: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes until they become fragrant and translucent.
  3. Cook potatoes and bell pepper: Stir in the diced potatoes and chopped bell pepper. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the potatoes start to soften.
  4. Brown the ground turkey: Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the ground turkey to the empty space. Break it apart with a spoon and cook until browned and fully cooked through.
  5. Season and combine: Sprinkle in the smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, pepper, and optional red chili flakes. Stir everything together and cook for another 5-7 minutes, continuing until the potatoes are tender and flavors meld.
  6. Finish with parsley and serve: Remove the skillet from heat, stir in the fresh chopped parsley, and serve the dish hot for a delicious meal.
