Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey breast (or beef)
- 1 medium onion (diced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 zucchini (diced)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon all-purpose steak seasoning (I use McCormick’s)
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 14 ounce can tomato sauce (salt free)
- ¼ cup barbecue sauce (I use Trader Joe’s all natural)
- ½ cup corn (fresh or frozen)
- salt and pepper to taste
- cups iceberg lettuce – to serve
- minced red onion (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Heat a large, deep sauté pan over medium-high heat and spray with cooking spray. Add ground turkey and begin breaking up with a wooden spoon.
- While turkey is browning, dice up the onion, garlic and zucchini then toss into the pan. Stir occasionally while meat continues to brown and veggies begin to soften.
- Add Worcestershire, steak seasoning and smoked paprika to the pan and continue cooking until most of the liquid evaporates, about 7-9 minutes.
- Add tomato sauce and barbecue sauce to the pan and bring to a boil. Stir then reduce heat to low to simmer. Stir in corn then continue to simmer on low for 10 minutes.
- Check for seasoning before serving in iceberg lettuce cups. Garnish with red onion if you wish.
