Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 shallot, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instruction

  1. In a large skillet, cook turkey, onion, shallot and garlic over medium heat until turkey is no longer pink and vegetables are tender, 8-10 minutes, breaking up turkey into crumbles; drain. Add tomato paste; cook and stir 1 minute longer.
  2. Add sweet potato, broth, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, until sweet potato is tender, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
