One Pot Wonder-Turkey Potato Stew

Ingredients:

• 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil or grass-fed butter
• 1 yellow onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 lb ground turkey white or dark meat, or a combination of both
• 2 tbsp fresh tarragon, chopped (*or 1 Tbsp dried)
• 1.5 tsp dried thyme
• Sea salt and black pepper to taste
• 1/2 – 2/3 cup good-quality chicken or turkey broth
• 5 medium Yukon gold potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch pieces (peel if desired)
• 1 medium white sweet potato, peeled and chopped, or use sweet potatoes or butternut squash
• 1 cup fresh green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 12 oz bag frozen peas

Directions:

1. Heat large pot over medium heat and add the olive oil or butter. Once heated, add the onion and garlic, and sauté 1-2 minutes. Next, add the ground turkey and season to taste with sea salt and black pepper. Continue cooking until the meat is mostly browned (about 5 minutes), breaking up the large pieces with a wooden spoon or spatula as needed.
2. Next, mix in the yellow potatoes, sweet potato, broth, and thyme. *Note: If using dried tarragon, add now. Add more sea salt and black pepper to taste. Stir well and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover pot with a lid and allow mixture to cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. After 10-12 minutes, add the fresh green beans and frozen peas. If needed, add a bit more broth. Cover again and cook 5-6 more minutes or until potatoes and beans are tender.
4. Stir in the fresh tarragon. Taste and add more sea salt and/or black pepper, if desired. Serve.
