Savory Ground Turkey Sweet Potato Bake Recipe

This Ground Turkey Sweet Potato Bake offers a savory blend of tender turkey and rich, creamy sweet potatoes, making it an ideal dish for cozy family dinners.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and diced
  • 1 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheese optional
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and garlic, sautéing until softened.
  • Add the ground turkey to the skillet, cooking until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Stir in diced sweet potatoes, bell peppers, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • Transfer the mixture into a baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  • Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for about 30 minutes.
  • Remove the foil, sprinkle cheese on top if using, and bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes.
  • Check for doneness; sweet potatoes should be tender. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
