Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil

  • 1 large sweet potato chopped
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth

  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet over medium heat, heat coconut oil. To the skillet, add the next 4 ingredients (turkey through salt and pepper).
