Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb lean ground turkey

  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. Prep the ingredients by washing and chopping the potatoes, dicing the onion, and mincing the garlic.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, sauté the onion and garlic until golden brown.
  3. Add ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in chopped potatoes, salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning until evenly coated.
