Ingredients

4 servings

For the taco meat

1 lb ground turkey
Chef's tip
Brown it just like ground meat, using the same amount. It's leaner than turkey, so add a little oil to the pan to keep it from sticking.
1 tbsp olive oil
½ medium yellow onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp dried oregano
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
⅓ cup chicken broth
Chef's tip
Use the same amount of low-sodium vegetable broth. The dish will be a little lighter in flavor than with chicken broth.

For serving

8 small corn tortillas
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Chef's tip
If the dish is baked or melted, cover it or keep the heat gentle - dairy-free shreds melt more slowly than dairy cheese.
1 cup shredded iceberg or romaine lettuce
1 medium tomato, diced
½ cup sour cream
Can be omitted
sour cream
¼ cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped (optional)
1 lime, cut into wedges (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 4–5 minutes.
2
Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute, watching closely so it does not brown.
