All-American Ground Turkey Tacos

Serves 4-6
Takes 30 minutes (if that)

3 Tablespoons peanut or olive oil
2 large onions, finely chopped
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 1/2 pounds of ground turkey
1 can corn
3 - 6 Tablespoons Tomato Salsa or Salsa Verde
2/3 cup dry white wine
3/4 teaspoon salt
12 flour tortillas, warmed or crisped just before serving

Toppings
1 cups chopped tomatoes
2 cups shredded lettuce
2 cups shredded cheese
2 cups sour cream

1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan set over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and stir until the onions are wilted, about 5 minutes. Add the turkey and cook, stirring occasionally to break up any chunks, until browned thoroughly, about 10 minutes. Add the corn, salsa, the wine, and salt. Cook until most of the liquid has been absorbed, 10 - 15 minutes.
2. To assemble, spread about 1/3 cup of the turkey filling in the middle of a tortilla. Top with some of the remaining salsa, chopped tomatoes, shredded lettuce, cheese and sour cream. Fold and serve.
