Ingredients

4 servings

For the taco meat

1 lb ground turkey
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
Ingredient note
Oregano is fine during pregnancy in normal cooking amounts - this recipe uses about scant 1/4 tsp per serving. The caution is about concentrated oregano oil and large medicinal doses.
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
⅓ cup chicken broth

For serving

8 small corn tortillas
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded iceberg or romaine lettuce
1 medium tomato, diced
½ cup 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.
