Sloppy Joe Baked Potatoes
- 4 russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 carrot, finely chopped
- 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
- 1 pound 93 percent lean ground turkey
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/3 cup sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese (about 2 ounces)
- Pierce the potatoes in a few places with a fork; place on a microwave-safe plate and microwave until tender, turning once, about 15 minutes.
- Set aside.
- Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the onion, carrot and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender, about 7 minutes.
- Add the turkey and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper; cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink on the surface, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the ketchup, chili sauce, 1/2 cup water, the chili powder and garlic powder; continue cooking until the meat is cooked through, 3 to 5 more minutes.
- Split the baked potatoes open lengthwise, dot with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and gently fluff the flesh with a fork.
- Top with the turkey mixture and sprinkle with the cheese while still hot.
