Method

1

Peel and cube the sweet potato into 0.5-inch pieces. Dice the onion and zucchini. Mince the garlic.

2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it into small pieces as it cooks, about 5–7 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed.

3

Add the diced onion to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

4

Add the cubed sweet potato and diced zucchini. Stir in the paprika and cumin. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.

5

Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook uncovered for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potato is fork-tender and the broth has reduced by half.

6

Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper. Finish with lime juice if desired. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot.
