Ground Turkey Mexican Skillet
Ingredients:
2 tbsp of olive oil
1 lb of ground turkey
1 red onion; chopped
1 jalapeno; deseeded and chopped finely
1/2 tsp of cayenne powder
1 tsp of cumin
1 tsp of smoked paprika
1 tsp of dried oregano
1 tsp of garlic powder
1 tsp of onion powder
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp of black pepper
1 cup of frozen corn
1 (14.5 oz) can of diced and fire roasted tomatoes
1 (4 oz) can of diced green chiles (either spicy or mild)
1 (7 oz) can of salsa verde (either spicy of mild)
1/2 cup of chopped cilantro
Corn tortillas (however many you need to cover your filling); cut in half
1 1/2 - 2 cups of shredded Mexican cheese blend
For topping: avocado, lime juice, chopped radish, chopped cilantro and chopped raw red onion, and sour cream (optional)
Preheat your oven to 375F.
In a cast iron skillet, heat the oil over medium heat and when hot, add in your olive oil and when hot, add in the ground turkey. When the turkey is about 80% cooked, add in the diced onion and jalapeno.
Once the onion starts to get glossy, add in all of your seasonings (cayenne, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper) and mix everything together. Let that fry off for a few minutes and then add in your frozen corn, diced tomatoes, diced green chiles and salsa verde.
Mix everything together and let simmer over low heat for about 15 minutes.
Cut the heat and top your meat mixture with your halves of tortilla, covering the entire skillet.
Top the tortillas with your cheese and place the whole pan in the oven. Cook for about 45 minutes, or until the tortillas are crispy and the cheese is melty and delicious.
Let sit for about 10 minutes to set and serve with all the toppings.
