¼ tsp sea salt
3 tbsp olive oil
¼ cup fresh chopped cilantro

2 tbsp cider vinegar
1 tsp sugar
¼ tsp salt
2 cups shredded cabbage

Instructions

In resealable bag, combine cumin, oregano, chili powder, salt, olive oil and cilantro, rubbing to make a paste. Add Turkey breasts and shake to thoroughly coat. Let sit for 30 minutes and up to one day.
