Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground turkey
• 2 cups Gluten-free elbow pasta
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 Yellow onion, diced
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 Red bell pepper, diced
• 14.5 ounces Diced tomatoes (canned, with juices)
• 8 ounces Tomato sauce
• 2 cups Chicken broth, gluten-free
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it is browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Add the diced red bell pepper to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until it begins to soften.

Step 6

Stir in the diced tomatoes (with juices), tomato sauce, chicken broth, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the sauce gently simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 8

While the sauce is simmering, cook the gluten-free elbow pasta according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 9

Once the sauce has simmered and thickened slightly, stir in the cooked gluten-free pasta until well coated in the sauce.

Step 10

Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Step 11

Serve the goulash hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
