Cooking Steps

Roast Potatoes & Prep
1
    • Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

    • Dice potatoes into ½-inch pieces. Toss on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

    • Meanwhile, halve, peel, and cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 servings) into ½-inch wedges. 

  • Dice potatoes into 1⁄2-inch pieces.. Toss on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, halve, peel, and cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 servings) into ½-inch wedges. Remove ground turkey to a medium bowl (you will use this later)

Cook Rice
2
    • While potatoes roast, in a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

    • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

Mix Chimichurri Mayo
3
    • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine chimichurri and mayonnaise.

    • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add onion wedges; cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and slightly tender, 4-6 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook until brick red in color, 30-60 seconds. 

    • Add turkey* and cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until cooked through, 3-4 minutes.

Finish Lomo Saltado
5
    • Add cumin, soy sauce, ½ cup water, 2 tsp vinegar, and ¼ tsp sugar to pan with turkey mixture (⅔ cup water, 4 tsp vinegar, and ½ tsp sugar for 4 servings). (Be sure to measure the vinegar—we sent more!) Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened, 1-2 minutes.

    • Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
