Do you eat turkey? Regularly? Just at Christmas? I think it's a bit of misunderstood food! People often say that they don't like it because it's dry, or it's bland.

Actually, it's a really great alternative to red meat, especially if it's minced, and it takes very well to being marinated.  It's also very quick to cook turkey steaks, which always gets my vote!


This recipe was a last minute thought, a way to jazz up a simple dinner, and it turned out really well. The only thing you really need to watch out for is overcooking the steaks. That's what will make them seem dry. The lime, ginger, honey and chilli marinade, help to keep it moist and add oodles of flavour.


The marinated turkey steaks are delicious with new potatoes and salad for dinner or in a baguette or crusty roll for lunch.
