There is a little oven baking at the end, but it’s just enough to get the cheese melted. The rest of the recipe is just adding the various ingredients to olive oil in a skillet on medium high heat: first the ground turkey, garlic, and basic spices (salt, pepper, and chili powder) for 10 minutes.
Then add the yellow pepper and onions, and then add the sweet potatoes once the onions are a golden brown and cook until the sweet potatoes are tender. Finally, you put on the cheese, bake in an oven preheated to 400 F just long enough for the cheese to melt, and put on the garnish. Enjoy!
Ingredients
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil (I use Pompeian)
1 lbs extra-lean ground turkey
1 tsp clove garlic, minced
½ cup onions, diced
½ cup yellow pepper, diced
1 ½ cup sweet potato, diced
Salt and pepper
A pinch of chili powder
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Fresh parsley and sliced green onions for garnishing
Instructions:
In an iron cast skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add ground turkey and garlic. Stir occasionally and cook for a few minutes.
Add onions and yellow peppers, cook until onions are gold brown. Then add the sweet potato, chili pepper, salt and pepper. Cover the skillet and cook until they are tender. Stir occasionally. Add more olive oil or a little bit of water if needed, to cook the sweet potato.
Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees.
When the sweet potato is tender, add shredded mozzarella cheese and bring the skillet to the oven to melt the cheese.
When the cheese melts, remove from the oven and garnish with parsley.
