Marinating Time: 20-60 minutes
Preparation & Cooking Time: 15 minutes
Serves: 2
Ingredients:
1 pound organic, cage-free turkey tenders, sliced into 1- inch-thick strip
2 tablespoons avocado oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
¼ teaspoon ground cardamom
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 medium garlic cloves, crushed and diced
¼ cup fresh mint, chopped
Directions:
Marinate the turkey strips with 1 tablespoon of the oil, lemon juice, spices, salt, pepper, garlic, and all but 1 tablespoon of the mint for 20 to 60 minutes.
Heat a sauté pan to medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, then the turkey, and sauté until lightly browned on each side, turning every few minutes until fully cooked.
Remove from the pan, garnish with the remaining tablespoon of mint, and serve immediately.
