Ingredients
(Serves 2 people)
- 2 Turkey Steaks
- 1 pot of Mexican Spice
- ⅔ pack of Black Beans
- 1 Diced Sweet Potato
- 1 Lime
- 1 bunch of Coriander
- 2 Vine Tomatoes
- 1 Red Onion
How to make it
- Heat a splash of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the diced sweet potato and half the Mexican spice. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Fry, stirring occasionally until the sweet potato begins to soften, 4-5 mins.
- Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the red onion. Add to the pan with the sweet potato. Cook until softened, 3 mins. Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all). Chop the tomatoes into roughly 1cm chunks. Mix the coriander and tomato together in a bowl.
- Lower the heat on the sweet potato and add a splash of water to the pan. Cover with a lid or foil and cook until soft enough to eat, another 7-8 mins. TIP: Shake the pan every 2 mins or so to make sure the sweet potato isn't catching. If the pan is dry, add another splash of water, replace the lid and keep cooking.
- Pop the turkey steaks on a plate, drizzle with oil and season with salt, pepper and the remaining Mexican spice. Rub the flavours over the meat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Pop onto a baking tray and grill until browned on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. Turn halfway through cooking. IMPORTANT: The turkey is cooked when it is no longer pink in the middle.

Zest and halve the lime. Add a squeeze of lime juice to the tomato and coriander. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add a little more lime juice if you want to!
- Drain and rinse the black beans in a sieve. Add the black beans to the sweet potato once it is cooked. Stir and cook until the beans are piping hot, 2 mins. Season with salt and pepper. Share between your bowls. Slice the turkey and pop on top of your beans. Finish with the tomato salsa.
