Instructions
 

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle in the oil. Once hot, add the ground turkey and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon until browned and crispy, about 5 to 7 minutes. Throw in the onion, garlic, garlic salt, chili powder, and black pepper. Toss to evenly combine. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes or until the veggies have softened.
