Method
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet with lid over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, cooking for 3-4 minutes until softened and the onion turns translucent.
- Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook for 5-7 minutes until completely browned with no pink remaining and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let it sit without stirring too frequently for better browning.
- Add the minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant, watching carefully to prevent the garlic from burning.
- Stir in the diced zucchini and canned diced tomatoes with their juices. Season with salt and pepper to taste and mix until well combined.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender but not mushy.
- If desired, sprinkle shredded cheese on top and cover until melted. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
