Youssef's Take on Turkey Tagine

Step 1

Start by mixing the paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl to create your spice blend. Spread half of the sliced onions evenly in the bottom of a 10-inch skillet. Layer the potato slices on top, making sure they’re in a single layer, even if they overlap a little. Then add the carrots, zucchini, bell pepper, and tomatoes in layers, sprinkling the garlic over the tomatoes. Arrange the turkey pieces over the veggies, spacing them out as evenly as you can. Sprinkle the spice mix all over the turkey, add the rest of the onion slices on top, and drizzle everything with some vegetable oil. Cover the skillet and cook on medium-low heat for about 40 minutes, or until the turkey is fully cooked and the onions on top have softened and become translucent. Once it’s done, take off the lid and let it rest for 10 minutes. Just before serving, drizzle a little olive oil over the whole dish for a nice finish.
