Eric the EPICurean is a monthly blog series in which our very own talented chef, Eric Rasmussen, creates a truly EPIC meal. Being an Austin based company, we’re quite familiar with breakfast tacos. They are quick and easy to make, and the perfect on-the-go meal. This month, Eric delighted us with his own version of EPIC Turkey breakfast tacos.
What you’ll need:
EPIC Turkey Salsa
4 Cups of Water
5 Garlic Cloves
2 Dried Ancho Chilis
3 Dried Guajillo Peppers
1 Tbsp of Olive Oil
1/2 Yellow Onion (medium diced)
1/2 Green Bell Pepper (medium diced)
8 EPIC Turkey Bars
14.5 oz can of diced Tomatoes
2 Tbsp Cilantro (chopped)
Salt and Pepper to taste
To assemble – Start by adding the garlic, chilis, and guajillo to 3 cups of water. Cook for about 15 minutes, until tender, under medium heat. Let it cool down for a few minutes and then purée it down. On a sauté pan, add olive oil, yellow onion, and green bell pepper and cook until tender. Ground 8 Turkey bars on a food processor and pulse it until it resembles the texture of ground beef. Then add it to the pan with the onion and bell pepper mix. Sauté for 3-4 minutes and then add in the chili/guajillo purée and stir around to mix all ingredients. Add in a cup of water and let it simmer for 20 minutes. Finish off by adding in the diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, and salt & pepper to taste.
