- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup finely chopped sweet onion (about 1 small onion)
- ½ cup finely chopped carrot (about 1 large carrot)
- ½ cup finely chopped celery (about 2 stalks)
- 1 cup finely chopped green bell pepper (about 1 pepper)
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic (about 3 cloves)
- 450 grams ground turkey
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup canned tomato sauce
- ½ cup ketchup (or barbecue sauce)
- ¼ cup low-sodium broth (or water)
- 2 tablespoons coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons smooth Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the onion, carrot, celery, and bell pepper. Cook until the vegetables are soft, about 7-8 minutes. Then add the garlic and cook for another minute.
Push the vegetables to the sides of the pan and add the ground turkey to the center. Break the turkey into small pieces with a spatula and start mixing with the vegetables. Cook until the turkey is completely browned.
Add the salt, paprika, thyme, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix well.
Add the tomato sauce, ketchup, broth, coconut sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and vinegar. Mix thoroughly.
Simmer uncovered over medium heat for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally until the sauce reaches the desired consistency. If the sauce becomes too thick, you can add a bit more broth.
Taste the spices and adjust if necessary. Once ready, place the meat inside the buns, add cheese if desired, and enjoy!
