Prep

  1. Step 1. Heat Olive Oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add Onion and cook until softened, about 4 minutes.

  2. Step 2. Add Ground Turkey and cook over medium-high heat, breaking it into small pieces, until browned and no pink remains, about 7 minutes.

  3. Step 3. Stir in Cumin, Paprika, Salt, Tomato Paste and Water. Simmer over medium heat until the turkey is coated and the liquid has mostly reduced, about 3 minutes.

  4. Step 4. Meanwhile, put Corn, Avocado, Lime, Lettuce and Cheddar Cheese in separate bowls for the table.

Cook

  1. Step 5. Warm Tortilla in batches in a dry skillet over medium heat until pliable, about 30 seconds per side. Wrap in a clean towel to keep warm.

Finish & serve

  1. Step 6. Bring the turkey, warm tortillas and toppings to the table. Let everyone assemble tacos and squeeze lime over the top.

Tips

Good to know

Check the turkey with an instant-read thermometer; it should reach 165°F.

Swap it

Use corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas for a gluten-free dinner, checking the package label.

Leftovers

Refrigerate the turkey and toppings separately for up to 3 days; reheat the turkey until steaming before serving.
