Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces gluten-free tortillas
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
- 1 cup, drained and rinsed canned black beans
- 1 cup, with juice canned diced tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 cup, chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 1 cut into wedges lime
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
Push the turkey mixture to one side of the skillet. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the diced red bell pepper to the empty side of the skillet. Sauté the bell pepper for 3-4 minutes, then mix it with the turkey.
Add the black beans, diced tomatoes with juice, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until well combined and heated through.
Remove the skillet from the heat and fold in the chopped cilantro.
Warm the gluten-free tortillas according to package instructions.
To assemble the burritos, place a tortilla on a flat surface, spoon a generous amount of the turkey mixture in the center, and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling, folding in the sides to secure.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Serve immediately with a dollop of sour cream on top and lime wedges on the side.
