Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground turkey
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium Onion, chopped
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium Zucchini, diced
- 1 cup Broccoli florets
- 1 medium Carrot, grated
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Low sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 7-8 minutes.
Stir in the diced red bell pepper, zucchini, broccoli florets, and grated carrot to the skillet. Mix well to combine.
Cook the vegetables with the meat, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Pour in the low sodium soy sauce and sprinkle the mixture with dried oregano, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt. Stir to coat the ingredients evenly.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to enhance.
Remove from heat and serve the savory ground meat and vegetable mixture warm. Enjoy your nutritious, low-fat meal!
