Why recepie famous for?
In contrast to traditional tacos, these taste complete as is, without further garnishes or sauces. I’ve also made this using bite-sized pieces of chicken thighs and increasing the cooking time appropriately.
Ingredients
1-1/4 pounds lean ground turkey
1 celery rib, chopped
4 green onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 jar (7 ounces) roasted sweet red peppers, drained and chopped
2 ounces 53% cacao dark baking chocolate, chopped
4 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup lightly salted mixed nuts, coarsely chopped
12 corn tortillas (6 inches), warmed
Instructions
In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook the turkey, celery, green onions and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink and vegetables are tender; drain.
Stir in the tomatoes, red peppers, chocolate, chili powder, cumin, salt and cinnamon. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from the heat; stir in nuts. Place about 1/3 cup filling on each tortilla. Freeze option: Freeze cooled meat mixture in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally and adding a little water if necessary.
