A delightful and quick taco-inspired rice bowl recipe, perfect for a family dinner.
Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the ground turkey.
Break the turkey into small pieces as it cooks for even browning.
Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the pan and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Sprinkle in the taco seasoning and mix well to coat the turkey and vegetables.
Add a splash of water if the mixture seems too dry.
Stir in the cooked rice and mix until evenly combined.
Use freshly cooked or leftover rice for convenience.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the mixture, cover the pan, and let it melt.
Turn off the heat while the cheese melts to prevent overcooking.
Serve the mixture in bowls and top with sour cream and crushed tortilla chips.
Garnish with fresh cilantro or a squeeze of lime juice for added flavor.
