Simmered Turkey Enchiladas

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 10 min. Cook: 6 hours YIELD: 4 servings.
I discovered a different way to serve economical turkey thighs. I simmer them in tomato sauce, green chiles and seasonings until they're tender and flavorful, then serve them in tortillas with our favorite fresh toppings. —Stella Schams, Tempe, Arizona

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds turkey thighs or drumsticks
  • 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
  • 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chiles
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion

  • 1 to 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 8 flour tortillas (6 inches), warmed
  • Optional toppings: Chopped green onions, sliced ripe olives, chopped tomatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream and shredded lettuce

Directions

  • 1. Remove skin from turkey; place turkey in a 5-qt. slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the tomato sauce, chiles, onion, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder and garlic powder; pour over turkey. Cover and cook on low until turkey is tender, 6-8 hours.
