Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup diced onion ((120 grams))
• 1 pound ground turkey ((I used 93/7))
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup white rice ((uncooked))
• 1 can (14.5 ounces) fire roasted tomatoes
• 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained ((230 grams))
• 3 cups diced bell peppers ((340 gram/2 medium))
• 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
• 1 1/2 cups broth
• salt and pepper, to taste
• optional toppings: avocado, cilantro, lime juice, greek yogurt/sour cream, jalapenos, salsa, hot sauce...

Instructions

1. Cooke your turkey. In a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat, add oil and let it get hot, about 20 seconds. Add onion and saute for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add turkey, breaking it up with a spatula, minced garlic, and salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
2. Add remaining ingredients. Add rice, tomatoes, black beans, peppers, taco seasoning, and salt and pepper and stir to combine. Pour in broth and carefully stir, making sure it is evenly distributed and nothing is stuck to the bottom. Cover with a lid and let simmer for 15-20 minutes until liquid is absorbed and rice is cooked through. Be careful the rice doesn't burn and stir every so often.
3. Enjoy! Top with optional toppings or toppings of choice and enjoy!
