In under 30 minutes, you'll savor succulent turkey infused with aromatic spices and colorful vegetables, all while relishing the comforting crunch of roasted sweet potatoes. A speedy, yet sensational meal that's sure to satisfy your cravings.

INGREDIENTS

For the Turkey and Vegetable Kebabs:

1 pound ground turkey
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 zucchini, cut into chunks
1 yellow squash, cut into chunks

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Wooden skewers (pre-soaked in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning)

For the Roasted Sweet Potatoes:

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried thyme (or your favorite herbs)
Salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

STEP 2: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, finely chopped onion, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to incorporate all the ingredients.

STEP 3: Take a small amount of the turkey mixture and form it into a meatball. Thread the meatball onto a pre-soaked wooden skewer. Repeat until you've used up all the turkey mixture, forming kebabs.

STEP 4: In a separate bowl, toss the sweet potato wedges with olive oil, dried thyme, salt, and pepper until they are well coated.

STEP 5: Place the turkey and vegetable kebabs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle the chopped red bell pepper, zucchini, and yellow squash with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then arrange them on the same baking sheet.

STEP 6: Place both the kebabs and sweet potato wedges in the preheated oven.

STEP 7: Roast the sweet potatoes for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly crispy, flipping them halfway through.

STEP 8: While the sweet potatoes are roasting, bake the turkey and vegetable kebabs for about 15-20 minutes or until the turkey is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, turning them occasionally to ensure even cooking.

STEP 9: Once everything is cooked and slightly browned, remove the kebabs and sweet potatoes from the oven.

Serve the Turkey and Vegetable Kebabs with a side of roasted sweet potatoes. You can garnish with fresh herbs or a drizzle of yogurt sauce if desired.

This flavorful and nutritious dinner is ready in under 30 minutes, making it a perfect choice for a quick and satisfying meal. Enjoy!

Bon Appétit!
