Ingredients
1 lb ground chicken
1 tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 small red bell pepper, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp black pepper
1 cup unsweetened tomato sauce
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
½ tsp ground ginger
4 whole-grain sandwich buns
Optional: sliced avocado, fresh spinach leaves
Instructions
1
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and bell pepper and sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened.
2
Stir in the garlic, turmeric, smoked paprika, cumin, and black pepper, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
3
Add the ground chicken, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 5–7 minutes.
4
Stir in the tomato sauce, apple cider vinegar, honey or maple syrup, Dijon mustard, and ground ginger. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. I'll put 7-8 tomatoes in my blender and puree, simmer for 10 minutes for wonderful tomato sauce.
5
Toast the sandwich buns lightly if desired. Spoon the chicken mixture onto the buns and top with optional avocado slices and spinach leaves.
6
Serve immediately and enjoy your anti-inflammatory Sloppy Joes!
