Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 2 bell peppers sliced (any color)
  • 1 onion sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Sauté Garlic

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Cook the Turkey

  • Add ground turkey to the skillet. Use a spoon or spatula to break it apart as it cooks. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 6–7 minutes.

Add Veggies

  • Stir in the sliced bell peppers and onions. Sauté for 5–7 minutes, or until vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.

Season

  • Add cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 2–3 minutes until flavors meld.

Garnish and Serve

  • Remove from heat and garnish with chopped cilantro if using. Serve warm on its own, over rice, or in lettuce cups.
