directions
In 1-quart bowl combine turkey, cilantro, garlic, cumin, chili powder, soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.
In large non-stick skillet, over medium-high heat, stir-fry turkey mixture in 1 teaspoon oil for 4 minutes, or until turkey is no longer pink. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Add remaining teaspoon of oil to skillet. Stir-fry red and green peppers 2 minutes or until slightly softened. Add onion; cook, stirring constantly, until vegetables are crisp-tender. Return turkey strips to skillet. Pour lime juice over mixture and stir to combine. Remove from heat and serve immedidately in flour tortillas. Garnish with sour cream, guacamole and Pica de Gallo sauce, if desired.
This is a delicious recipe and I liked that it had turkey in it instead of chicken. I prefer the taste of turkey over chicken any day. It was easy to make too. It has all the regular fajita components.

This is such a fun twist on traditional fajitas! I love that it uses nice lean but tender turkey instead of the traditional beef. The seasoning on the turkey seemed like it would be odd - lots of cilantro and little spice - but it really tasted quite good. I would definitely make this again in a heartbeat!
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
