Directions
- Heat a stainless skillet over medium-high heat and warm the pan.
- Peel and dice the yellow onion; peel and mince the garlic.
- Coat the bottom of the pan with virgin coconut oil, then crumble in the ground turkey and cook, stirring, until browned and crumbly, about 2–3 minutes.
- Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3–4 minutes.
- Prepare the potatoes by washing, peeling, and cutting into large dice; prepare the tomato by washing and dicing; rinse the cilantro, reserving half for garnish and finely chopping the rest; measure out the peas.
- Add the potatoes, tomato, half the cilantro, frozen peas, tomato sauce, oregano, cumin, and salt to the pan; stir well. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15–20 minutes.
- Toast the slices of bread until lightly crisped.
- To serve, ladle into bowls and garnish with the remaining cilantro.
Two tips
- Chop the onion, garlic, and cilantro in advance to speed up dinner prep.
- Leftovers keep for a couple of days in the fridge; reheat gently and serve with the crusty bread on the side.
