Ingredients
Turkey & Vegetables
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 cup bell peppers, diced (any color)
- 1/2 cup onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Eggs
- 4 large eggs
Garnish & Optional Toppings
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Shredded cheese (optional)
- Avocado slices (optional)
- Hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the Turkey: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
- Add Vegetables: Add the diced onion and bell peppers to the skillet with the turkey. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Stir in the minced garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, then cook for another 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Cook the Eggs: Create four small wells in the turkey and vegetable mixture. Crack one egg into each well. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness, whether runny or firm.
- Serve: Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Add optional shredded cheese, avocado slices, or hot sauce if desired. Serve warm and enjoy your Turkey & Egg Breakfast Skillet.
