This Turkey Taco Skillet is loaded with potatoes, peppers, onion, seasoned ground turkey, homemade pico de gallo, and creamy avocado dressing. It's a complete meal! So tasty and good for you!
Heat the oil in a nonstick pan. Add diced potatoes, peppers, and onion. Sauté on medium high heat, stirring occasionally until sides of potatoes have browned. This can take 5 to 10 minutes depending on your stove and the size of your potatoes. Once potatoes have some good browning reduce heat to medium, cover, and let cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until tender.
While potatoes are cooking combine Pico de Gallo ingredients into a small bowl and stir. Add lime juice and salt a little at a time. Taste and add more until you get it how you like it. Set aside.
Remove potatoes, peppers, and onion from the skillet when finished and set aside.
Add your ground turkey to the skillet on medium high heat. Crumble the turkey using your spatula. Sauté until browned and cooked through. Add all seasonings and stir until combined.
While turkey is cooking combine your Creamy Avocado Dressing ingredients in the blender. Blend until smooth and thick.
If you want to assemble everything in the skillet together: When ground turkey is done remove it from the skillet and set aside. Add the finished potatoes, peppers, and onions back in the skillet. Layer ground turkey on top. Then Pico de Gallo. Then a drizzle of Creamy Avocado Dressing. (It's thick. I use a squirt bottle but you can add a few dollops with a spoon if that's easiest.) Add any other toppings you like and serve!
Notes
I'm using one skillet for this recipe so you'll notice that my directions include removing the finished potatoes from the pan in order to cook the turkey. You can of course use two separate skillets if you prefer. I'm all about trying to have less dirty dishes since I have yet to find a volunteer dishwasher in my home and currently hold the title myself.Nutrition information assumes 4 servings of equal size. Those are fairly large servings so you can probably get 6 servings out of it if you're also offering a side dish.
