Chargrilled turkey with quinoa tabbouleh & tahini dressing

This superhealthy supper is packed full of vibrant and fresh ingredients.

Ingredients

• 200g quinoa
• ½ cucumber, cut into 1cm chunks
• 175g cherry tomatoes, halved
• 3 spring onions, finely sliced
• handful parsley, roughly chopped
• handful coriander, roughly chopped
• 1 tbsp olive oil, plus 1 tsp
• juice 1 lemon
• 4 turkey steaks

For the tahini dressing

• 1½ tbsp tahini paste
• 1½ tbsp low-fat yogurt
• juice ½ lemon
• ½ garlic clove, crushed
• ½ tsp clear honey

Method

1. Tip the quinoa into a saucepan and pour over 600ml water. Cover with a lid and bring to the boil. Turn down and simmer until the water has evaporated (just as you’d cook rice) – about 20 mins. Take off the lid and leave to cool while you prepare the turkey and salad.
2. Tip the cucumber, tomatoes, spring onions and herbs into a large mixing bowl. Pour over 1 tbsp olive oil and lemon juice, season well and mix everything together.
3. Heat a griddle pan and, when smoking hot, rub the turkey steaks with 1 tsp olive oil. Cook for about 5 mins on each side, depending on thickness. Stir together all the dressing ingredients along with 3 tbsp water. Toss the quinoa together with the salad and arrange on plates. Cut the turkey into thick slices, pile up on the quinoa and drizzle over the dressing.
