- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice

- 0.25 cup Cilantro leaves

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, black pepper, and lime juice.
Rub the spice mixture all over the turkey breast and let it marinate for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, dice the red and yellow bell peppers and the red onion into small pieces.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the bell peppers, onion, and corn kernels for 5 minutes until slightly charred and softened.
Place the marinated turkey breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
In a large serving dish, layer the sautéed vegetables. Top with slices of turkey breast.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the turkey and vegetables, followed by fresh cilantro leaves.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream on the side and a generous handful of tortilla chips for dipping.
