Instructions

1

Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat.

2

Add the ground turkey, breaking it up with a wooden spoon until it is browned and releases its juices.

3

Push the meat to one side and add the finely diced sweet potatoes.

4

Sauté the potatoes in the rendered fat until they begin to soften and develop a golden, caramelized crust, about 8-10 minutes.

5

Stir in aromatics like minced garlic, onion, and a touch of cumin and paprika (common in Caribbean picadillo).

6

Add a splash of water, cover, and steam until the potatoes are tender and creamy inside.

7

Uncover, fold in the fresh spinach, and toss until the leaves are just wilted and glossy.

8

Finish with a generous squeeze of fresh lime juice to brighten the sweetness of the potatoes and a pinch of flaky sea salt.

9

Serve hot in a shallow bowl, ensuring the textures of the crispy turkey and soft potato are evenly distributed.
