4 servings
For the plantain shells
- 2 large green plantains (about 1 lb total), peeled
- 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
For the turkey filling
- 1 lb ground turkey
Chef's tipBrown 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 coconut oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ¼ tsp ceylon cinnamon
- 2 tbsp coconut aminos
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup homemade bone broth or water
Chef's tipUse the same amount of low-sodium vegetable broth. It won't give the body or richness of bone broth, so it's best where broth is mainly a cooking liquid or flavor base. - ¾ tsp fine sea salt, or to taste
For serving
- 2 ripe avocados, pitted and sliced
- 1 cup green cabbage, thinly shredded
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1

Cut each peeled green plantain crosswise into 8 rounds, each about 3/4-inch thick (16 rounds total). Toss the rounds in a small bowl with the melted coconut oil and 1/2 tsp salt until evenly coated.
