Ingredients:
2 teaspoons canola oil
2 leeks
1 red bell pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 1/4 pounds butternut squash
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 pound turkey cutlets
2 cups corn kernels
2 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 freshly ground pepper, to taste
Directions:
1. Trim, chop and rinse leeks. Chop bell pepper. Mince garlic. Peel, seed and cut into 1-inch cubes the butternut squash. Cut turkey into 1/2-by-2-inch strips.
2. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add leeks and bell pepper; cook, stirring often, until the vegetables begin to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute more. Stir in broth, squash, thyme and cumin; cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.
3. Add turkey and corn; return to a simmer and cook until the turkey is just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add lime juice and crushed red pepper. Season with salt and pepper.
