Method

Prep 10 min · cook 30 min
  1. Heat the oven to 200 °C. Mist ovenproof bowls with oil, press a tortilla into each and bake for 8–10 minutes until crisp.
  2. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and cook the onion for 3–5 minutes until browned; add the garlic powder for a minute.
  3. Turn up the heat and brown the bison in batches until nearly cooked, then stir in the tomato paste and spices for about 2 minutes.
  4. Lower to medium, pour in the broth and simmer until thick, about 5 minutes; season.
  5. Chop the romaine and cabbage together finely and toss with the carrot.
  6. Fill each tortilla bowl with salad and bison, then top with yogurt and pico.
  7. The bison keeps 4 days in the fridge or 3 months frozen; keep the salad and shells separate and assemble just before eating.
