Instructions

Prep all ingredients: chop lime, jalapeno, cilantro and measure out the cotija cheese.

Season the ground turkey with salt and pepper, then simmer over medium-high heat until well browned, about 5 minutes.

Add lime, jalapeno, cilantro to the pan and cook until softened, 7 minutes.

Stir in cotija cheese, lime juice and cook for another 3 minutes until fragrant.

Meanwhile, prepare the corn tortillas according to package instructions and set aside.

Combine everything in the pan, reduce heat, and let simmer for 19 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt, pepper, or a squeeze of citrus if needed.

Serve hot, over corn tortillas, garnished with fresh herbs.
