When it comes to quick weeknight meals that the whole family will love, Delicious Turkey Tacos top the list. They are not only flavorful but also a healthy alternative to traditional beef tacos, making them a perfect choice for those looking to eat better without sacrificing taste.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 lb ground turkey
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes
8 small corn tortillas
Shredded lettuce
Diced tomatoes
Chopped cilantro
Shredded cheese
Avocado or guacamole
Sour cream
Hot sauce
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground turkey to the skillet. Cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
Add the diced tomatoes to the skillet and simmer for about 5 minutes until the mixture is heated through and slightly thickened.
While the turkey filling is simmering, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or wrap them in aluminum foil and place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.
Once everything is ready, assemble the tacos by spooning the turkey filling into each tortilla.
Top with your choice of shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, cheese, avocado, sour cream, and hot sauce. Serve immediately.
