|
|
|
|
|
|
Heat a large frying pan on the stove top on medium
heat.
|
|
|
|
Drain your jalapenos and chop your onions.
Add a teaspoon of oil to your frying pan.
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
Add the onions and jalapenos to the pan now. Let the onions
sweat and become translucent.
|
|
|
Add the cumin seeds to the oil and let this fry for about a
minute. It will start to smell fragrant and sputter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
Now add the ground turkey to the mixture in
the pan.
|
|
Add your dry spices: Chili powder,
ground cumin, ground coriander and
garlic salt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
 |
|
|
|
Add the juice of 1 lime to the pot.
|
|
Start breaking up your meat to
incorporate your spices and getting
the meat to brown.
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
 |
|
|
|
This is the brand I use. Of course you
can use any that is available to you.
|
|
Wash and drain your kidney beans
under cold running water.
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
After your meat has cooked a little add
the beans.
|
|
|
|
Add your taco seasoning and mix.
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will cook for about 15 minutes. When the
water has dried out turn off the stove. Notice I did
not use any salt or black pepper in this recipe.
That is because the Taco seasoning has salt and
some spiciness to it.
|
|
|
At this point I added 1/2 cup of water
so that the meat does not dry out and
it has time to cook fully.

You can use any shell to fill your taco
meat in. I love buying the small tortillas
and frying those in oil until it is slightly
crispy.
|
|
The reason mine look like whole wheat is
because I used a low card tortilla, that has
only 3 grams of carb. It tastes just as good as
the regular tortilla.
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
 |
|
|
|
These are my fried shells!
|
|
I layer mine first with cheese, add my hot taco meat
on top of my cheese so it melts, then I top my meat
with lettuce, tomatoes, jalepenos, onions and a dash
of sour cream! It was yummy! I washed it all down
with a cold beer.
