Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When it’s shimmering, toss in the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.

Next, add the ground turkey. As it cooks, break it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until it’s no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in the diced zucchini, chickpeas, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes. You want the zucchini just tender, bright in color, and still slightly firm.

Taste your creation and adjust the seasonings as you like.

If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle with fresh parsley right before serving, and enjoy it warm!
