Directions

HONEY JALAPENO MARINATED GRILLED TURKEY

  1. In a shallow bowl, or gallon zip lock bag, combine all of the marinade ingredients and mix until well combined.
  2. Add the sliced turkey, making sure to cover both sides with the marinade.
  3. Let marinate for at least two hours, or overnight.
  4. When it’s time to grill, preheat the grill to medium-high.
  5. Oil the grill to prevent the turkey from sticking: fill a small bowl with additional olive oil; ball up a few paper towels and use grill tongs to dip the balled-up paper towels into the olive oil; once saturated, drag the paper towels over the grates of the grill.
  6. Using tongs, place the slices of turkey on the grates one at a time. Allow to cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until gently charred and juicy and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  7. Remove from the grill and place on a clean serving platter.

FAJITA BOWL

  1. Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the frozen cauliflower rice and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once shimmering add red onion, shishito peppers and corn. Cook until gently softened and the peppers are blistered, remove from heat. Sprinkle it with sea salt.
  3. Slice the grilled turkey into thin strips.
  4. To serve, fill each individual bowl with a bed of cauliflower rice.
  5. Top with grilled turkey, cotija cheese, avocado and a lime wedge.
