Ground Turkey & Potato Hash

Prep time: 15-20 minutes

Cook time: 25-35 minutes

Materials:

  • 1 lb. ground turkey
  • 5-6 large potatoes (I used Russet) cubed
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 3-4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 bell pepper or handful mini peppers chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp. paprika (divided)
  • 1 tbsp. oregano
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder
  • 6-7 tbsp. olive oil (divided)
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese

Process:

  1. In a skillet with high sides, over medium/ high heat add in 2-3 tbsp. of oil.
  2. Once hot add in the cubed potatoes. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and 1 tbsp. paprika. Coat well and cook stirring often until potatoes are fork tender (times will vary depending on how large your potatoes are).
  3. Once cooked through remove into a clean bowl.
  4. Into the same skillet add in an additional 2-3 tbsp. of oil and the ground turkey.
  5. Cook breaking the ground turkey up and stirring often, until turkey is cooked through. If turkey seems too dry add in a few tbsp. of oil.
  6. If your turkey renders a lot of fat discard it leaving about 2 tbsp. behind.
  7. Season the meat with salt, pepper, oregano, chili powder and remaining 1 tbsp. paprika. Mix well to coat the ground turkey.
  8. Add in the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes or until softened.
  9. Then add in the garlic cloves and bell pepper. Mix well and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes.
  10. Add the cooked potatoes back in and give the mixture a good stir to incorporate.
  11. Top with sharp cheddar cheese. Give it a rough mix and remove from heat.
  12. Plate and ENJOY!
