Chunky Turkey Hash
Total time: 30 minutes
I buy turkey tenderloins for use in dishes like this. If they are too large for a single meal I cut them in half (or whatever) and freeze the rest. The tenderloin is very lean, takes on other flavorings easily and can be cut to size.
Ingredients:
- 2 small - medium potatoes
- 2 carrots
- 2 ribs celery
- 1/2 green pepper
- 1 onion
- 4oz (120gr) mushrooms
- 2 cloves garlic
- 10oz (300gr) turkey tenderloin
- 4 tsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup (2oz, 60ml) chicken stock
- 3 tbs ketchup
- 1 tbs Dijon-style mustard
- 1 tbs soy sauce
- 1 tsp oregano
Instructions:
- Cut potato into chunks.
- Roll-cut carrots: cut the end off the carrot at an angle, roll carrot 1/4 turn and cut next piece about 3/4 inch away at an angle, roll 1/4 and cut next piece, etc.
- Steam potatoes and carrots for 15 minutes over medium-high heat, until they are just tender.
- Chop onion, pepper, celery and mince garlic. Clean mushrooms and slice thickly.
- Cut turkey into bite-size pieces.
- Heat 2 tsp oil in large nonstick skillet over medium - high heat.
- Add onion, pepper, celery and mushrooms. Sauté until tender, about 7 minutes.
- Add garlic and sauté 3 minutes longer.
