Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. 2 Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat; add ground turkey. Cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain excess fat. Stir in chicken broth and taco seasoning mix; cook and stir until liquid reduces and thickens, 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. 3 Stir in orzo; bring to a simmer and cook until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in salsa until combined. Transfer turkey mixture to a 2-quart casserole dish.
  4. 4 Combine muffin mix, creamed corn, and milk in a bowl; spread over turkey mixture.
  5. 5 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center of casserole comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Sprinkle Mexican cheese blend over top of casserole; bake until cheese melts, about 5 minutes more.
