How to Make Fantastic Turkey Tacos
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and minced garlic and sauté for 3 minutes, until softened.
- Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink (about 5-7 minutes).
- Stir in the cumin and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Add the tomato sauce and water. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, partially cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Increase heat to medium, remove the lid, and simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Stir in the crushed red pepper flakes and cilantro. Season with salt to taste.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange taco shells on a baking sheet.
- Prepare your toppings: shred the cheese, lettuce, and slice the scallions and olives.
- Once the turkey mixture is almost done, heat the taco shells in the preheated oven for 5 minutes, or until warm and slightly crisp.
- Fill each taco shell with the turkey mixture.
- Add your favorite toppings: cheese, lettuce, scallions, olives, and a drizzle of your favorite hot sauce, taco sauce, or salsa.
