1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. In a cast iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
2
Add the ground turkey to the skillet along with the minced garlic, chili flakes, a dash of salt and black pepper. Stir the mixture using a wooden spoon to break up the turkey as it cooks.
3
Once the turkey is browned (around 5 minutes), stir in the diced onions and yellow peppers. Cook until the onions turn translucent.
4
Mix in the diced sweet potatoes. Cover the skillet, lowering heat if necessary, and allow to simmer until the sweet potatoes become tender (around 10- 12 minutes). Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and, if needed, add a touch more olive oil for moisture.
5
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the skillet ingredients. Place the skillet in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted.
6
Remove the skillet from the oven, and top the dish with the chopped green onions for garnish. Serve warm directly from the skillet.
