Turkey Fajitas Recipes

AIR FRYER TURKEY FAJITAS

Steps:

• Mix chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder together in a small bowl. Squeeze the juice of 1 lime over the turkey breast. Sprinkle seasoning mixture over the meat. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Toss to coat and set aside.
• Place bell peppers and onion into a bowl and cover with remaining oil. Toss to coat.
• Preheat an air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Cook the bell peppers and onion in the preheated air fryer for 8 minutes. Shake and cook another 5 minutes. Add jalapenos. Cook for 5 minutes. Open the basket, shake, and place turkey strips in one single layer on top of the vegetables. Close the basket and cook, 7 to 8 minutes. Open, shake the basket to distribute mixture, and continue to cook until turkey strips are a bit crispy and no longer pink in the centers and peppers are tender, about 5 minutes more.
• Remove the basket and place the fajitas in a bowl or on a platter. Top with cilantro and squeeze juice of remaining lime over.

TURKEY FAJITA RICE BOWLS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high. Combine the rice, 12/3 cups water and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and stir. Cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 18 minutes. Let stand, covered, 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put 1 bell pepper strip and 2 outer rings from 1 onion slice in a blender; set aside. Brush the remaining bell peppers and onion with 2 tablespoons olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss the turkey with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the fajita seasoning; season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the peppers and onion, turning halfway through, until tender and charred in spots, about 10 minutes. Remove the vegetables to a large bowl; add the lime juice. Season with salt and pepper and toss. Grill the turkey until marked and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a cutting board; slice into strips.
• Puree the reserved bell pepper and onion with 1/4 cup water, the cilantro and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the cilantro puree. Divide the rice among bowls; top with the turkey, vegetables, avocado, sour cream and pico de gallo.
