Corn Tortilla Tacos With Ground Turkey image

I threw this together tonight with what I had on hand. It turned out really good! You can play with the spices to suit your taste, I have estimated the amounts here. I made them as written but I think some corn added to the mixture would be good too. Note: prep time includes cooking the filling

Time 20m

Yield 6 tortillas, 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

olive oil
1/4 cup red pepper
1/4 cup onion
1 lb ground turkey
3/4 cup salsa
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
6 corn tortillas
1 -2 cup monterey jack cheese

Steps:

  • Chop the red pepper and onion.
  • Brown the chopped red pepper and onion in some olive oil for about 5 minutes. Add the ground turkey, breaking up as you brown it.
  • Add the salsa, chili powder and garlic powder mixing til seasonings are combined.
  • Place some of the mixture down the middle of soft corn tortilla, top with some of the shredded cheese and roll up.
  • I used a George Foreman grill for the next step, I imagine you could use a frying pan but the grill works nicely to seal up the tortilla. Spray some cooking spray on a preheated grill and grill the rolled tortilla until slightly crispy and cheese has melted.
  • You could serve this with sour cream and additional salsa if you wish.
