1 lb. ground turkey
2 scallions (3 inches of green left on), thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and finely chopped
1 tsp. minced garlic
2 Tbsp. chopped cilantro
3/4 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp. ground cumin

Cooking Instructions

Prepare hot coals for grilling. Place the ground turkey in a bowl and mix well with the scallions, bell pepper, garlic, cilantro and spices. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
