Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, diced
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 2 medium sweet potatoes, 1 pound of ground turkey, 1 red bell pepper, 1 onion, 2 tablespoons of coconut oil, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Peel the sweet potatoes and dice them into small cubes, approximately ½ inch in size. This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
- Chop the onion and dice the red bell pepper into small pieces. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of coconut oil over medium heat until melted and hot.
- Add the diced sweet potatoes to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the coconut oil. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Cover the skillet with a lid and let the sweet potatoes cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help them soften and start to caramelize.
- After 10 minutes, remove the lid and add the chopped onion and diced red bell pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
- Continue to cook for another 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the onions and peppers are softened.
- Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the ground turkey to the other side. Break it apart with a spatula and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Once the turkey is cooked through, mix everything together in the skillet. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Remove the skillet from heat and let it cool slightly before serving.
- Serve the Paleo Sweet Potato Breakfast Hash warm, either on its own or topped with fresh herbs if desired.
Tips
- Dice your sweet potatoes uniformly to ensure even cooking and perfect caramelization.
- Use a cast-iron skillet for the best heat distribution and a delightful crispy texture.
- Don't rush the sweet potato cooking process - letting them caramelize adds incredible depth of flavor.
- Make sure to break the ground turkey into small crumbles for even cooking and better texture integration.
- For extra flavor, consider adding herbs like fresh thyme or rosemary before serving.
- Prep your vegetables in advance to make the cooking process smoother and faster.
- If you're meal prepping, this hash reheats beautifully and stays fresh in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
