Description
A quick and healthy Ground Turkey and Peppers Stir‑Fry, combining lean ground turkey with colorful bell peppers and savory spices—perfect for low‑carb dinners, wraps, salads, or rice bowls.
Ingredients
1 lb ground turkey (preferably lean)
3 bell peppers (mix of red, yellow, green), sliced or diced
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp olive oil (or preferred cooking oil)
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp chili powder (adjust to taste)
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
½ cup chicken broth or vegetable broth (optional for moisture)
Optional: crushed red pepper flakes for extra heat
Optional: fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Sauté garlic for about 1 minute.
Add ground turkey, breaking it apart, and cook until browned and no longer pink (~6–8 minutes).
Stir in onion and garlic (if not already added), and cook until onions are translucent (~2–3 minutes).
Add bell peppers along with cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook until peppers soften but remain slightly crisp (~5–7 minutes).
Pour in broth and simmer for about 5 minutes to let flavors meld and liquid reduce slightly.
Taste and adjust seasoning. If desired, add crushed red pepper flakes for heat
