Ingredients
- juice of 1 lime
- 2 tbsp spicy chipotle chilli paste*
- 1 tbsp honey
- 4 turkey steaks
- 2 tsp vegetable oil
- cooked quinoa and green salad, to serve (optional)
- 1 green chilli, thinly sliced
For the grilled corn salsa
- 4 corn on the cob, or see Kitchen Tip
- 1 tbsp low-fat mayonnaise
- juice of 2 limes
- 1 tsp ancho chilli flakes or 1⁄2 tsp crushed chilli flakes
- 3 spring onions, finely chopped
- 40g feta cheese, finely crumbled
- 2 tbsp chopped coriander, plus extra to serve
- 100g cherry tomatoes, halved
Step by step
Marinate the turkey for up to 24 hours.
-
Preheat your outdoor barbecue (you can also use a griddle pan but you can heat this up closer to the cooking time). Combine the lime juice, chipotle paste and honey in a shallow baking dish, season well and turn the turkey steaks in the mixture. Cover and chill until just before cooking.
-
Rub the corn cobs with the mayonnaise and season well. Grill the corn on all sides until golden yellow with charred grill marks. This will take about 20-25 minutes. Use a sharp knife to cut off the kernels and place in a bowl.
TipYou can use 2 x 198g tins of sweetcorn instead of corn on the cob. Drain well and tip into a hot large nonstick frying pan. Stir-fry for 10 minutes until starting to char. Stir in the mayonnaise for the last 30 seconds then tip into a bowl and season.
-
Add the remaining salsa ingredients and taste for additional seasoning.
-
Drizzle the vegetable oil on the turkey steaks and barbecue or griddle for 2-3 minutes each side until cooked through. Remove and serve with the salsa, quinoa and salad if you like. Sprinkle everything with green chilli and extra coriander.
