Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil.
Add the ground turkey, season with salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme, and cook until browned (about 5–7 minutes).
Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet and cook until softened (about 5 minutes).
