Yield Makes 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, chopped (1 cup)
1 pound ground turkey (dark and light meat)
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup chicken broth or water
6 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, shredded
1 medium red tomato, cored and chopped
10 hard taco shells
Sour cream, for garnish
Lucinda's Pico de Gallo, for garnish
Avocado, for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. When oil shimmers, add onion and cook until onion becomes translucent. Add turkey and cook, breaking up meat with the side of a spoon, just until meat is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Stir in chili powder, salt, and tomato paste and cook 1 minute. Add broth and simmer, stirring occasionally, until liquid becomes thick and clings to meat.
  • Divide meat mixture, cheese, lettuce, and tomato among taco shells and serve immediately with optional sour cream, pico de gallo, and avocado.
