How to Cook Perfect Ground Turkey.

Browned ground turkey in a skillet

Serves: 2–4 · Prep: 2 min · Cook: 8–10 min

Make It

  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat until hot.

  2. Add 1 lb ground turkey and break it apart with a wooden spoon or spatula.

  3. Season with sea salt and black pepper.

  4. Cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through with no pink remaining.

  5. Drain any excess liquid if needed.

Notes

  • Ground turkey can dry out quickly, so avoid overcooking.

  • For extra flavor, add minced garlic or your favorite herbs in the last minute of cooking.

  • This method also works well with ground chicken, though it may need 1–2 extra minutes for thorough cooking.
