Fiesta Turkey Tavern Recipe

Fiesta Turkey Tavern Recipe

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/4 pounds ground turkey
  • 1 cup finely chopped white onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard, divided
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped jalapeno
  • 5 hamburger buns
  1. Heat the olive oil over medium-low heat; cook and stir the ground turkey, using the back of a wooden spoon to work the meat into small crumbles as it cooks. When the meat is about half browned, stir in the onion, garlic, and black pepper; cook and stir until the turkey is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink.
  2. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the prepared mustard, the cayenne pepper, chili powder, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, stirring, until the water has evaporated, about 20 minutes. Stir in the remaining mustard and the chopped jalapeno, and cook until heated through, about 5 more minutes. Spoon the mixture onto the hamburger buns.
