Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 2 medium zucchini, about 1 lb, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, optional
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for serving

Method
 

  1. Brown the turkey in olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
  2. Reduce heat to medium, add onion and cook 4 to 5 minutes, then stir in garlic, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes for 30 seconds.
  3. Add the zucchini, salt, pepper, and broth. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini is tender but not mushy, 6 to 8 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat, stir in the Parmesan until melted, and serve topped with parsley.

Notes

If you prefer a saucier dish, add an extra splash of broth and a spoonful of cream cheese or sour cream along with the Parmesan for more body.
