Ground Turkey Sweet Potato Skillet: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe

  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pound ground turkey
– 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 medium onion, diced
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 2 cups baby spinach
– Optional: fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Creating the Ground Turkey Sweet Potato Skillet is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Begin by peeling and dicing the sweet potatoes into small, uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.

2. Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

3. Sauté Aromatics: Add the diced onion to the pan. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, stirring frequently.

4. Cook the Turkey: Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, cumin, and oregano. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the turkey is no longer pink.

5. Add Sweet Potatoes: Incorporate the diced sweet potatoes into the skillet. Stir well to coat them with the spices.

6. Cover and Cook: Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it cook for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

7. Add Spinach: Once the sweet potatoes are tender and fully cooked, add the baby spinach to the skillet. Stir until the spinach wilts, which should take about 2-3 minutes.

8. Taste and Adjust: Taste the skillet mixture and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

9. Garnish and Serve: If desired, garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible Ground Turkey Sweet Potato Skillet with ease and confidence.
