A hearty and healthy turkey and vegetable stew, perfect for a cozy meal.
Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat.
Ensure the oil is hot before adding the turkey to prevent sticking.
Add the ground turkey to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon.
Cook the turkey thoroughly to ensure it's evenly browned and flavorful.
Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the pot and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Stir in the potatoes, green beans, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Cut the potatoes into small, even pieces to ensure they cook quickly and evenly.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the potatoes are tender.
Cover the pot partially to retain heat while allowing some steam to escape.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve hot.
Garnish with fresh parsley or a dollop of sour cream for added flavor and presentation.
