Method

  • Pickled Onion & Carrot Mixture Add onions, carrots, apple cider vinegar, 1 tbsp of salt, and 1/4 cup of sugar to a pot over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and let simmer until sugar is dissolved and the mixture is cooked down, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Ground Turkey Mixture Add ground turkey, garlic, and ginger to a medium saute pan with a drizzle of sesame oil. As the meat begins to cook add a dash of each; fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and Chinese five spice. Adjust seasonings to suit your taste. Once cooked, removed from heat and set aside.
  • Sriracha Mayo Mix 1/2 cup of mayo, 3 tbsp of Sriracha, and a little bit of lemon juice.
  • Preheat oven to 350. Spread the tortilla chips evenly over a baking pan, and sprinkle Mexican cheese and meat mixture. Bake for 5 minutes and up the oven to broil for another 3 minutes give or take, until cheese melts and starts to brown slightly.
  • Remove chips from the oven and top with cilantro, mint, green onion, jalapeno, Sriracha mayo, and cotija cheese. Serve it up!
