Ingredients
- 1.5 lb (700 g), about 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 13.5 oz (380 g) ground turkey
- 7 oz (200 g), about 1 large red bell pepper
- 5.3 oz (150 g), about 1 cup canned corn
- 3.5 oz (100 g), about 1 small onion
- 2 1/4 tsp olive oil
- 1 tsp sweet paprika
- 1 pinch salt
How to make it, step by step
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into 3/4-inch (2 cm) cubes, spread on a baking sheet, drizzle with half the oil and a pinch of salt, and roast for 20-22 minutes until tender and golden outside.
- Meanwhile, dice the onion and red bell pepper small and saute in a large skillet with the rest of the oil over medium heat for 5 minutes.
- Turn up the heat, add the ground turkey, and brown it, breaking it up with a spoon, for 5-6 minutes until no longer pink.
- Add the sweet paprika and the drained corn, season with salt and pepper, and saute 2 more minutes so the flavors come together.
- Divide the roasted sweet potato between two bowls and top with the turkey, pepper, and corn. Serve hot.
