Instructions

4 steps
  1. 1

    In a small pot, combine rice, 3⁄4 cup water (1 1⁄2 cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

    Wash and dry produce. Halve, peel, and dice onion.

  2. 2

    Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4-5 minutes.

    Add another drizzle of oil, turkey*, garlic powder, Mexican Spice Blend, salt, and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.

    Add tomato paste and cook, stirring, until darkened, 30-60 seconds.

    Add stock concentrates and 1⁄3 cup water (1⁄2 cup for 4 servings); reduce heat to medium low and simmer until mixture is slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. TIP: Add a splash of water if the mixture is too thick.

  3. 3

    While turkey cooks, trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens; mince whites. Finely dice tomato.

    In a small bowl, combine scallion whites, tomato, half the vinegar (all for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Wrap tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave until warm and pliable, 30-60 seconds.

    Fluff rice with a fork; taste and season with salt and pepper.

    Divide tortillas between plates and fill with rice and turkey. Top with pico de gallo and red pepper crema. Sprinkle with scallion greens and serve.
