Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups mashed potatoes
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for cooking
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in mixed vegetables, chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until everything is combined and heated through.
- Transfer the turkey mixture to a baking dish and spread it evenly.
- Spoon mashed potatoes on top, spreading them out to cover the filling completely, smoothing the top with a fork if desired.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
- Let the Shepherd’s Pie cool slightly before serving so the layers hold together beautifully.
