- Heat the oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. (about 4 min) — Medium heat

- Spread one-third of the turkey mixture across the skillet. Layer 2 tortillas, half the beans, one-third of the cheese, and another one-third of the turkey mixture. Repeat with 2 tortillas, the remaining beans, one-third of the cheese, and the remaining turkey mixture. Finish with the last 2 tortillas and remaining cheese. (about 3 min) — Off heat
- Cover the skillet and cook over low heat until the tortillas soften and the cheese melts, about 7 minutes. (about 7 min) — Low heat
- Rest the skillet for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. (about 5 min) — Off heat
