Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 6

Ingredients

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 red onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 carrot, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 medium Idaho potato (about 9 ounces)
3 assorted bell peppers, seeds removed, cut into 1/2-inch dice
6 ounces button mushrooms, stems trimmed, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
8 ounces ground turkey
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup dry sherry
2 cups homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock, skimmed of fat
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
6 large eggs (optional), poached or fried in a nonstick skillet with cooking spray

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat the butter in a large nonstick sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, and carrot. Peel the potato, and then cut into 1/2-inch dice. Add to the pan. Cook until the vegetables soften and begin to brown, 6 to 7 minutes.

    Step 2

    Reduce heat to medium; add the bell peppers and mushrooms, and cook until the vegetables are just tender, 8 to 10 minutes.

    Step 3

    Add the turkey; sauté until cooked through. Sprinkle with the flour; stir to combine.

    Step 4

    Add the sherry; scrape any browned bits from the pan. Cook until most of the liquid has evaporated. Add the stock, salt, black pepper, chili powder, and paprika; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer; cook until the liquid thickens and reduces by half. Stir in the parsley. Serve hot, topped with egg, if using.
