Ingredients

Turkey Filling

For Serving

Method

1

Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, 6-7 minutes until browned and no longer pink.

2

Add the onion and cook 3-4 minutes until softened, then add the garlic and cook 30 seconds more.

3

Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, and salt. Add the diced tomatoes and jalapeño (if using), and simmer 5-6 minutes until slightly thickened.

4

Arrange the butter lettuce leaves on a platter to use as taco shells.

5

Spoon the turkey filling into the lettuce cups and top with avocado, diced tomato, red onion, and cilantro.

6

Serve immediately with lime wedges for squeezing over the top.

Notes

  • Ground chicken or lean ground beef both work in place of turkey.
  • Add a spoonful of guacamole or a dollop of sour cream (if not dairy-free) for extra richness.
