Ingredients

  • Ground Turkey
  • Olive Oil
  • Onion
  • Garlic
  • Bell Peppers
  • Smoked Paprika
  • Cumin
  • Chili Powder (optional)
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper
  • Chicken Broth
  • Tomato Paste
  • Lime Juice
  • Fresh Herbs (Cilantro or Parsley)

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant.

2. Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.

3. Add the sliced bell peppers, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder (if using), salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the peppers are slightly tender.

4. Stir in the tomato paste, soy sauce (or coconut aminos), and chicken broth. Let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes, until slightly thickened.

5. If desired, squeeze in the lime juice for a fresh kick. Garnish the Ground Turkey and Peppers with chopped cilantro or parsley, and serve hot, either on its own or over rice, in lettuce wraps, or in tacos.

Notes

Customize this recipe by using ground chicken or lean ground beef. For a vegetarian option, use crumbled extra-firm tofu or diced mushrooms. You can also toss all the ingredients into a slow cooker for a different cooking method.
