Maple-Glazed Turkey & Millet Skillet

This hearty one-skillet dinner delivers all the cozy, whole-grain comfort of the classic turkey-and-farro combo, but is completely gluten-free thanks to a swap to fluffy, nutty millet in place of farro (which is a wheat relative and not safe for gluten-free diets). Ground turkey is browned with onions and garlic until deeply savory, then combined with tender roasted Brussels sprouts and the cooked millet. A quick maple-mustard glaze — made with pure maple syrup, gluten-free Dijon mustard, and a splash of tamari — ties everything together with a sweet-savory finish, while toasted pecans sprinkled on top add satisfying crunch. Perfect for a weeknight family dinner or meal prep, this dish is naturally rich in fiber, plant protein, and micronutrients from the whole grains and vegetables. Because it relies on naturally gluten-free ingredients like millet, turkey, Brussels sprouts, and pecans, it's an easy, delicious way to enjoy a nourishing, gluten-free meal without sacrificing the hearty, homestyle flavor you crave. Always double-check that your mustard and tamari are labeled certified gluten-free, as some brands use gluten-containing additives or thickeners.
