Ground Turkey Cheesy Taco Skillet

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 small onion finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• 1 tbsp chili powder
• ½ tsp paprika
• ½ tsp dried oregano
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 1 pound ground turkey
• 15 oz crushed tomatoes
• 15 oz black beans drained
• 1 cup frozen corn
• 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese

Directions

• Preheat a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 tbsp olive oil and 1 finely chopped onion.
• Cook for about 8-10 minutes, until it’s softened and caramelized.
• Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and stir for 30 seconds to release the aroma.
• Add the seasoning (1 tbsp chili powder, ½ tsp paprika, ½ tsp dried oregano, ½ tsp onion powder, ½ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp salt, and ¼ tsp black pepper). Stir it for 30 seconds.
• When ready, add 1 pound ground turkey, break it into smaller pieces and cook for about 10 minutes until the meat is cooked through.
• Lower the heat to medium/low, stir in 15 oz crushed tomatoes and cook for about 5 minutes until it’s warmed up. The meat will absorb some of the liquid.
• Add 15 oz black beans and 1 cup frozen corn. Stir and cook for another 5 minutes.
• Turn off the heat.
• Add 1 ½ cups grated sharp cheddar cheese and fold it in until it’s combined and melted.
• Top with chopped fresh onions, cilantro, avocado, and freshly squeezed lime juice to serve.
