A Mexican dish that is full of flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs. (24 oz.) turkey tenderloin
- 1 onion, divided
- 2 poblano peppers
- 5 tomatillos
- 1 serrano pepper
- 10-12 sprigs of cilantro
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 1/2 Tbsp. cumin
- 1/2 Tbsp oregano
- Salt, to taste
- 1 1/2 c. water, or as needed
Instructions
- Broil the poblano peppers, tomatillos, serrano pepper, and 1/2 the onion under high heat until charred, flipping as needed. Remove from oven and allow to cool enough to handle.
- Remove charred pieces from poblano peppers. Cut open peppers and remove seeds, then chop into a large dice. Set aside.
- Blend tomatillos, garlic, cilantro, and broiled onion in a food processor until smooth. Set aside.
- Cut turkey tenderloins into 1 1/2″ pieces. Add 1 tbsp. oil to a large pot, brown turkey pieces, then remove and set aside.
- Chop remaining half onion into a medium dice. To the same pot, add chopped onion and sauté until soft.
- Add all ingredients back to pot. Allow to come to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for 45 minutes to an hour, stirring occasionally.
