Keto Curried Turkey Skillet

8 ratings

This curry-inspired recipe is filled with tender eggplant, zucchini, and golden brown ground turkey. All the ingredients are flavored with a mix of spices, like curry and tarragon, and soaking in a bath of thick coconut milk. It’s that golden yellow sauce that holds all the warm, comforting flavors!

    Super delicious - even without the coconut milk.

      OMG. To die for. We substituted cumin, garam masala and tumeric for curry powder. Definitely adding this to my list of favourites

        Bland as heck. Add 1/2 tsp of salt and you need something thicker (maybe heavy cream) to make it into a thicker curry. If you want the zucchini and eggplant to be soft, you must cook it longer than the recipe indicates . Replace ground turkey with chicken and put it in the crock pot to simmer for 4 hours on low. Put over riced cauliflower.

          This was totally amazing! Even my best friend who hates egg plant loved this. I used heavy cream because I was out of coconut milk but it was delicious. The only thing I changed was how long I cooked the zucchini and eggplant. I cooked only until crisp tender because I just don’t like squishy veggies. Other than that I changed nothing else. This was quick and easy to make.

              Excellent! We added extra coconutilk and will probably add a little more curry next time. Even the kids were big fans.
