Turkey, Tomatillo, and Bean Burritos

Ingredients

4 servings

4 12-inch flour tortillas
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (twice around the pan)
1 package (1 1/3 pounds) ground turkey breast
1 large onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup chicken stock or broth
1 15-ounce can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1 16-ounce jar tomatillo salsa
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves (a handful), chopped
1 10-ounce package (2 1/2 cups) shredded Monterey Jack cheese (available on the dairy aisle)
  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 275°F. Wrap the flour tortillas in foil and warm in the oven.

    Step 2

    Preheat a large nonstick skillet with the vegetable oil. Add the ground turkey and break it up with the back of a spoon as it cooks and browns, about 4 minutes. Add the onions, garlic, bell peppers, salt, and pepper. Continue to cook for 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock, pinto beans, and 1 1/2 cups of the tomatillo salsa—that’s about three quarters of the jar. Turn the heat up to high and continue to cook for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the mixture is thickened. Remove from the heat and add the cilantro, stirring to distribute.

    Step 3

    Remove the flour tortillas from the oven and switch the broiler on.

    Step 4

    Pile the turkey mixture into the warm flour tortillas, sprinkle each with 1/4 cup of cheese, and then roll them up. Line a casserole or baking dish with the burritos, seam side down. Top each burrito with a little bit of the remaining 1/2 cup of tomatillo salsa, spreading it over the burritos with the back of a spoon. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and place the dish under the hot broiler, 6 inches from the heat source. Broil for 5 minutes to melt and brown the cheese. Serve immediately.
