Ingredients

• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) olive oil
• 1 Pound (lb) ground turkey
• 0.5 Cups onion, minced
• 0.25 Cups green bell pepper, minced
• 48 Fluid Ounces (fl oz) chicken broth
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) dried tarragon
• 3 Whole carrots, peeled and sliced
• 5 Small red potatoes, diced
• 0.75 Cups quick-cooking barley
• 2 Whole garlic cloves, minced
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) savory seasoning
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) garlic salt
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) crushed dried bay leaf
• 1 Pinch salt, to taste
• 1 Pinch pepper, to taste

Steps

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, stirring frequently, until the turkey is crumbled and browned, about 3 to 4 minutes.
2. Add the minced onion, green bell pepper, and garlic to the pot. Continue cooking until the onion softens and turns translucent, about 3 minutes.
3. Pour in the chicken broth and add the tarragon, carrots, red potatoes, savory seasoning, garlic salt, and crushed bay leaf. Stir well to combine.
4. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5. Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the quick-cooking barley and continue simmering until the barley is tender, about 15 minutes.
6. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with additional tarragon if desired.

Enjoy this flavorful and nourishing soup that is sure to warm you up on a chilly day!
