Tex-Mex Tacos

1 lb ground turkey
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
2 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. cumin
salt and pepper
1 box hard taco shells

1. Preheat a cast-iron skillet to medium-high. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, for 1 minute. Stir in the garlic, chili powder, oregano and cumin; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until the meat is browned, about 5 minutes.

2. Add 1/2 C. water, turn the heat to medium-low and simmer until the liquid is reduced by about half, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.

3. To make the tacos, spoon 2 to 3 Tbsp of meat into each shell and top with desired accompaniments.

Suggestions - avocado, scallions, lime juice, tomatoes
