Why You’ll Love This Recipe This Turkey Taco Skillet is a flavorful, one-pan wonder that’s both healthy and quick to …
Cook the Turkey: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes.
Add the Vegetables: Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and zucchini to the skillet with the turkey. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Season: Stir in the taco seasoning, black beans, diced tomatoes, and chicken broth (or water). Stir to combine and simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to reduce slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Add Cheese (optional): Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the mixture, if using. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt for 2-3 minutes.
Serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges. You can serve the skillet as is or over rice, in tortillas, or with your favorite taco toppings like avocado, salsa, or sour cream.
