One Pan Ground Turkey Sweetpotato Skillet
Make this ground turkey sweetpotato skillet for an easy weeknight dinner, or a Thanksgiving leftover dinner idea. Made in one pot, it's ready in under 30 minutes, easy and full of flavor.
Ingredients
- 1-2 Tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 1 lb lean ground turkey
- 2 medium sweetpotatoes, diced
- ⅓ cup broth (I like bone broth)
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Wash veggies and dice them while the pan heats up (or use this vegetable chopper).
- Once pan is warm, add in minced garlic, onion, pepper and ground turkey. Cook for 5-7 minutes, until ground turkey is no longer pink and onions are fragrant (use a meat thermometer).
- Remove turkey, diced onions and peppers from skillet and set aside on a plate.
- To the same skillet, add the remaining Tbsp of olive oil, diced sweetpotatoes and bone broth. Cover and cook over low-medium heat for 12-15 minutes, or until sweetpotatoes are cooked through.
- Remove cover and “scramble” diced sweetpotatoes every few minutes so they don’t stick to the pan. Add more broth/oil as needed
- Once sweetpotatoes are softened, add ground turkey, onions and pepper mixture back to pan over low heat. Taste and add salt and pepper as desired.
- Serve with avocado, salsa, guacamole, hummus, etc.
Notes
To use up Thanksgiving leftovers, you can use Thanksgiving turkey leftovers, and add in green beans, stuffing, cranberries and/or cranberry sauce! The flavors mesh really well together.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
