Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey breast
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced into half moons
- 2 carrots chopped
- 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
- zest of a lemon
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 cups low sodium chicken broth
- 15 ounces chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1/3 cup golden raisins
- Juice of half of a lemon
- 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring and crumbling with a spoon. When the turkey is mostly cooked add in the onion, carrot and red bell pepper sautéing for a couple minutes. Add in the lemon zest, spices, salt and pepper and continue to sauté until the vegetables soften and the turkey is cooked through.
- Stir in the tomato paste until it's incorporated into the mixture. Stir in the chicken broth, chickpeas and golden raisins and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 6-8 minutes or until the mixture thickens.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and cilantro. Serve as is or with warm pieces of naan, couscous or rice.
