Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 tostadas
1 teaspoon chile-lime seasoning (or 1/2 teaspoon chili powder plus a pinch of salt)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 carrot, grated on the large holes of a box grater
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound ground turkey
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2/3 cup sour cream
Shredded lettuce, diced tomato, chopped avocado and shredded cheddar cheese, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Lay the tostadas on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until toasted, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the chile-lime seasoning while still warm; set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the carrot, garlic and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the carrot is lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the turkey and cook, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Clear a space in the middle of the skillet and add the tomato paste, chili powder and cumin. Cook the paste mixture, stirring, until a shade darker, about 30 seconds, then stir the mixture into the turkey. Cook until well coated, about 1 more minute. Add 1/4 cup water and cook until saucy, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the sour cream on the tostadas, then add the turkey. Top with lettuce, tomato, avocado and cheese.
