Instructions

1. 1Soften the sweet potatoesHeat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced sweet potatoes, splash in the water, and cover the pan. Cook for about 8 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the potatoes are just tender, then scrape them onto a plate.
2. 2Brown the turkeyAdd the remaining tablespoon of oil to the same skillet and raise the heat to medium high. Add the ground turkey and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, breaking it into crumbles, until it is browned and no longer pink.
3. 3Add aromatics and spicesStir in the diced onion and cook for 3 minutes until it softens. Add the garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper, and stir for another minute until everything smells fragrant.
