Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Ground Turkey
  • 1 cup Broth
  • 2 24oz Marinara Sauce
  • 1 Onion diced
  • 4 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon Oil

  • 2 teaspoon Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Set your instant pot to "Saute" and add oil to the pot.
  • Once the oil is simmering, add the ground turkey, breaking into small pieces. Cook for about 5 minutes.
  • Add onion, garlic and bell peppers.
  • Add the seasonings and mix well, scraping any browned meat from the bottom of the pot. Add a little broth if any brown bits of meat have stuck to the bottom of the pan to prevent a "burn" message from the instant pot.
  • Turn the instant pot off "Saute", if it's cycle isn't already completed.
  • Add the broth, beans and marinara sauce to the pot. Mix well.
  • Cover with the Instant Pot lid, making sure the vent is set to "SEAL".
  • Set the Instant Pot for 10 minutes of high pressure.
  • Once done, let the instant pot naturally release for 5 minutes then quick release with the vent.
  • Remove lid and stir well. Will thicken upon standing.

Notes

Don't have an instant pot? Now worries! You can easily make this same recipe in a slow cooker. Just saute your turkey in a separate stovetop skillet first, then dump all ingredients into the slow cooker. Cook on low 6-8 hours.
