Introduction:
It started with a simple dinner on a Tuesday evening. I made a dish that was more of an experiment than a signature item. But after sharing a small portion with my neighbor, I heard a knock at the door minutes later—she couldn’t wait to get her hands on the recipe. That’s when I knew I had stumbled upon something special. If you’re looking for a recipe that’s easy to make, deeply comforting, and bound to impress anyone who tastes it, this is the one.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound ground chicken (or turkey)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup diced tomatoes (canned or fresh)
½ cup chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Cooked rice, pasta, or warm bread for serving
Directions:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft and translucent (about 4–5 minutes).
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the ground chicken, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned and fully cooked.
Sprinkle in smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir to evenly coat the meat.
Add the diced tomatoes and chicken broth. Simmer uncovered for 10–12 minutes, letting the flavors meld and the sauce slightly thicken.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top and let it melt. Stir gently to combine.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot over rice, pasta, or with crusty bread.
