Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 ears corn (husk and silk removed or about 2 cups frozen kernels)
  • 1 lb ground turkey (my package was 1 1/3 lbs)
  • 1 medium size onion (preferably sweet)
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • a few drops of hot pepper sauce
  • 1 teaspoon each (salt and pepper or more to taste)
  • 2 cups or one large red pepper (diced)
  • 1 bunch cilantro (chopped)
  • 8-10 large wraps or flour tortillas
  • grated monterey jack cheese (about 2-2 1/2 cups, optional)

Instruction

  • Wrap the cobs of corn in dampened paper towels and cook in microwave on high for 3 minutes. Let sit for another couple minutes in microwave and remove. Cut the corn off the cob and set aside.
  • In a large pan, cook the ground turkey, chopped onion, minced garlic, chili powder, hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes or until turkey is cooked and the onion is softened a bit. Break up the turkey and stir the mixture as it is cooking.
  • Add the chopped red pepper and corn. Toss the chopped cilantro into the mixture and remove from heat.
  • Spread about 1/4 cup of the grated cheese down the center of the wrap. Spoon the ground turkey mixture ( I used about 3/4 to 1 cup per wrap) on top of the cheese and roll up the wrap. Cut in half on the diagonal. Serve immediately or place in refrigerator covered tightly (so the wrap doesn't dry out) until ready to serve.
  • The wraps may be served hot, room temperature or cold.
