Apple Turkey Picadillo

Here's yet another easy, healthy meal that we like to make quite a bit...Apple Turkey Picadillo.  We found it in the Eating Well magazine.  It's made with turkey and has fruit and vegetable servings in it.  We serve it with tortillas on the side.  I recently discovered it goes very well with a Belgium beer...like Spaten Oktoberfest Beer.  It brings out the clove spice.

Ingredients:

• 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/3 cup finely chopped red onion
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 8 ounces 99%-lean ground turkey
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
• 1 medium tart green apple, peeled and chopped
• 1 cup chopped tomato
• 3 tablespoons chopped green olives
• 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/4 cup sliced scallion greens

Directions

1.  Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat.  Add onion and garlic; cook until soft, stirring often, about 2 minutes.  Add turkey; cook, stirring and breaking up, until lightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes.

2.  Sitr in cumin, oregano, salt, pepper and cloves; cook for 30 seconds.  Stir in vinegar, scraping up any browned bits.  Stir in apple, tomato, olives and Worcestershire sauce.  Reduce heat and gently simmer, stirring often, until any liquid in the pan has reduced to a syrupy glaze, about 8 minutes.  Stir in scallion greens and serve.
