Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 medium carrots, chopped
- 2 stalks celery stalks, chopped
- 2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes (with juices)
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 piece bay leaf
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the olive oil and ground turkey, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until the turkey is browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the turkey with a slotted spoon and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened, then stir in the minced garlic. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the chopped carrots and celery, and sauté for another 4-5 minutes until they begin to soften.
Stir in the diced potatoes, diced tomatoes (with their juices), chicken broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, rosemary, paprika, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Mix well to combine.
Return the browned ground turkey to the pot. Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.
Add the frozen peas to the stew and cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through. Discard the bay leaf before serving.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy!
