Turkey Enchiladas Recipe

Name: Turkey Enchiladas
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 25 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Mexican
Ingredients: 1 pound turkey; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 1 onion; 1 celery stick; 1 bell pepper; 3 garlic cloves; 1 tomato; 2 tablespoons tomato purée; 0.5 cup turkey stock; 1 teaspoon ground cumin; 1 teaspoon ground coriander; 0.5 teaspoon chilli seeds; 0.5 teaspoon coco powder; 4 servings salt & pepper; 5 ounces cheese; 8 corn tortillas

These turkey enchiladas feature a savory, spiced ground turkey filling rolled into corn tortillas. The filling gets its depth from a mix of onion, celery, bell pepper, garlic, tomato, and a blend of cumin, coriander, chili, and a touch of cocoa powder. After simmering, the rich liquid is separated to become the topping sauce, while the thicker turkey mixture is combined with cheese for the rolls. Once assembled and baked, you get bubbling, golden cheese over warm, saucy tortillas.
