Ingredients | Ground Turkey Sweet Potato

1 red onion, halved and thinly sliced

¼ cup Mexican crema

2 limes

¼ teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

1 chayote - peeled, halved, seeded, and diced into 1/2-inch pieces

1 poblano pepper - seeds and white ribs removed, diced into 1/2-inch pieces

6 (6 inch) flour tortillas

cooking spray

6 sprigs cilantro, minced, divided

½ teaspoon onion powder

¼ teaspoon salt

1 ¼ pounds ground turkey

¼ cup water

3 tablespoons taco seasoning mix

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 cup guacamole

½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Place red onion slices and crema in separate small bowls. Zest limes into another small bowl. Halve limes and squeeze juice into a fourth small bowl.

Stir 1 teaspoon lime juice into the bowl of crema. Add the remaining lime juice to the bowl with the red onions; stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt and let marinate at room temperature until pickled, at least 20 minutes.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chayote and poblano pepper; cook, stirring constantly, until golden and tender, about 10 minutes.

Coat tortillas on both sides with cooking spray. Place tortillas on a large baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven until crisped and lightly brown, 8 to 10 minutes.

Stir the lime zest, 1/2 the cilantro, onion powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt into the chayote-poblano mixture. Pour mixture into a bowl.

Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 7 minutes. Stir in 1/4 cup water, taco seasoning, and chili powder. Cook until water has evaporated, about 4 minutes.

Spread guacamole over each crisped tortilla; top with chayote-poblano mixture, ground turkey, pickled onions, lime crema, and remaining cilantro.

Sour cream can be substituted for the Mexican crema.

Corn tortillas also work in this recipe.
