2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep and cook the turkey

  • Cut a small corner from the ground turkey packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the turkey and lemongrass paste, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring to break up the meat, until browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
While the turkey cooks, start preparing the remaining ingredients.

2

Prep the remaining ingredients

  • Cut the tomatoes in half.
  • Trim the root end from the lettuce; separate the leaves. 
  • Using the bottom of a bowl or cup, lightly crush the cashews.
  • Cut the lime into wedges. 
  • Strip the basil leaves from the stems; tear any larger leaves, keeping smaller ones whole.

3

Make the salad

In a large bowl, toss together the turkey, tomatoes, Thai dressing, and as many chile flakes as you like. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the lettuce leaves to individual plates. Top with the turkey salad, cashews, carrots, and basil. Serve the lime wedges and any remaining chile flakes on the side.
