Ingredients

1.3 pounds turkey breast sliced into medallions
Salt and pepper to season
3 tablespoons oil
2 yellow onions finely chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
1/3 cup sparkling water
1 red bell pepper diced
1 carrot sliced into rounds
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon salt
Pepper to taste
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 1/4 cups water
5 ounces mushrooms sliced

Instructions

Season the turkey medallions with salt and pepper.
In a large skillet or pot, heat the oil over medium heat. Add onions and garlic, sauté for about 10 minutes, adding a few tablespoons of sparkling water occasionally to help the onions become translucent.
Add the sliced carrot and diced bell pepper. Continue to sauté for another 10 minutes, occasionally adding club soda.
Place the turkey in the skillet and stir. Let it cook for about 8 minutes without adding liquid, stirring occasionally.
Add water, paprika, salt, a bit of pepper, bay leaf, and tomato paste. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 15 minutes.
In the last 5-8 minutes of cooking, add the mushrooms, stir, and continue cooking until the mushrooms are tender.
Serve with a side of your choice, like mashed potatoes, pasta, rice, or polenta.
