Greek Turkey Tacos
Everyone likes tacos, right?! But sometimes don't you get tired of the same old recipe? Ok, not really, we all LOVE Taco Tuesday, but here's a different twist to add to your recipe box! My family and I really enjoyed these!
Greek Turkey Tacos
For the cucumber-tomato salsa:
- 3 roma tomatoes, chopped
- 1 English cucumber, chopped
- 1/2 small red onion, diced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- dash of Himalayan salt
For the tzatziki sauce:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup finely diced cucumber
- dash of Himalayan salt
For the turkey:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 small red onion, diced
- 1 lb lean ground turkey breast
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground oregano
- 1/8 cup dry white wine
- 3 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
Additional ingredients:
- Corn tortillas
- Romaine lettuce
INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare the cucumber-tomato salsa by combining tomatoes, cucumbers and onions in a bowl with olive oil, lemon juice and vinegar. Season with salt to taste; set aside while you prepare the tzatziki and turkey.
- To make the tzatziki, dice the cucumber fairly small. In a medium bowl, stir together the cucumber, into the yogurt and add feta cheese, garlic powder and dried dill. Season with salt; set aside while you prepare the turkey.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and onion and cook just until soft about 5 minutes. Add turkey and cook 5 minutes, breaking any big pieces up. Add garlic and oregano and cook 1 minute more. Turn the heat up to medium-high and add white wine. Cook, stirring, until most of the wine evaporates. Stir in the tomato pasta and chicken broth. Turn heat back down to medium and let cook another 3-4 minutes.
- When ready to assemble the tacos, either grill or toast the tortillas in a dry skillet until warmed and slightly crispy. Or place in the oven on 350 degrees until warm and toasty. About 5 minutes.
- In each tortilla add a leaf or two of romaine and then add a scoop of turkey. Top with tomato-cucumber salsa and tzatziki.
