Instructions:
- Prep the Sweet Potatoes:
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil.
- Add the diced sweet potatoes and cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until they begin to soften and brown slightly. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
- Cook the Turkey:
- In the same skillet, add ground turkey and cook over medium heat until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Season with a pinch of salt, pepper, paprika, cumin, and chili powder (if using).
- Once the turkey is cooked, add the diced onion and bell pepper (if using), and cook for another 3-4 minutes until softened.
- Combine and Simmer:
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Return the sweet potatoes to the skillet. Add chicken broth (or water) to help everything come together and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the flavors have melded.
- Serve:
- Adjust seasonings with salt, pepper, or extra spices to taste.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for a burst of flavor.
Optional Variations:
- Add veggies: You can add spinach, kale, or zucchini to sneak in extra greens.
- Top with cheese: Sprinkle with shredded cheese towards the end of cooking if you like a cheesy touch.
- Serve with avocado: For added creaminess, serve with sliced avocado on top.
