Method
-
Heat a large carbon steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, coat with spray oil and add the squash and zucchini. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and sear marks develop. Remove from the pan and set aside.
-
Lightly spray the skillet again. Add the ground turkey and break it into pieces as it cooks. Add the diced onion and seasoning blend and continue cooking for about 8 minutes, until the turkey is roughly 85% cooked through with only a little pink remaining.
-
Stir in the enchilada sauce and mix until evenly distributed.
-
Return the squash and zucchini to the skillet, stir everything together, and cook for 1–2 minutes until heated through.
-
Serve over a grain of your choice, cauliflower rice, or eat cold over lettuce as a taco salad.
