Description
A cozy one-pan meal featuring lean ground turkey, golden potatoes, and vibrant veggies simmered in savory broth. Hearty, flavorful, and perfect for easy weeknight dinners or meal prep.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 2 cups diced potatoes (yellow or red)
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1½ cups chicken or vegetable broth
- Optional garnish: fresh parsley or sliced scallions
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ground turkey and season with salt and pepper. Brown and crumble for about 5–7 minutes.
- Add diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 4–5 minutes until softened. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant.
- Sprinkle in smoked paprika and dried oregano, stirring to coat.
- Add diced potatoes and toss briefly, then pour in broth until it reaches halfway up the potatoes.
- Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 15–20 minutes until potatoes are tender. Uncover in the last few minutes to let excess liquid evaporate, if desired.
- Taste and adjust seasonings. Garnish with parsley or scallions, then serve straight from the pan.
Notes
- Serve with crusty bread, brown rice, or a green salad for a complete meal.
- Taste before serving and add a squeeze of lemon or dollop of Greek yogurt for brightness.
- Mix in diced carrots, peas, or spinach for extra veggies. Add hearty ones early; stir in greens at the end.
- Reheat leftovers with a splash of broth to revive the veggies and potatoes.
