Ingredients
- 2 pounds turkey breast, cubed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 3 medium carrots, sliced
- 3 celery stalks, sliced
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 leaves bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the turkey cubes and brown them on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Once browned, remove the turkey from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the carrots and celery, and cook for another 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
Return the browned turkey to the pot. Add the cubed sweet potatoes and zucchini.
Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juice and the chicken broth.
Add the bay leaves, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything to combine.
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 60 minutes. Stir occasionally.
After 60 minutes, check the turkey and sweet potatoes. They should be tender and fully cooked.
Remove the bay leaves and discard them.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the stew before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your comforting Paleo Hearty Turkey Stew!
