Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine ground turkey, half of the minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and form into small meatballs about 2 cm in diameter.
  2. Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove meatballs and set aside.
  3. In the same pot, add diced yellow onion, carrot, and celery. Cook for 5 minutes until vegetables soften, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add the remaining minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. For in canned diced tomatoes with juice and chicken broth. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
  6. Add diced potato to the pot. Return the meatballs to the pot as well.
  7. Cover and simmer the stew on low heat for 25 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and meatballs are cooked through.
  8. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  9. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.

Tips

  • Use lean ground turkey to keep the stew light and healthy.
