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
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.
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.
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.
