Prep Time: 30 Min |
1/2 pound lean ground turkey
1/2 cup coarsely chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup salsa or picante sauce
1/4 cup Homemade Chicken Broth...or...canned reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds, or 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Four 6-inch diameter flour tortillas
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped cilantro
1/4 cup (1 ounce) shredded reduced-fat Cheddar...or...reduced-fat Monterey Jack/Colby
blend cheese
1/2 cup shredded lettuce
1/4 cup chopped tomato
1 chopped fresh jalapeno pepper (optional)
1. Sauté the turkey, onion, and garlic in a large non-stick skillet over medium
heat until no longer pink. Drain and return to the skillet.
2. Add the salsa, broth, chili powder, and cumin. Simmer, uncovered, until most
of the liquid has evaporated, about 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. While the turkey mixture simmers, broil the tortillas about 4 to 5 inches
from the heat source until crisp and golden brown, turning occasionally.
4. Stir the cilantro into the turkey mixture. Top each tortilla with 1/4 cup
turkey mixture, 1 tablespoon cheese, 2 T. lettuce, and 1 T. chopped tomato.
Sprinkle with jalapeno pepper, if desired.
