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. 

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.

Start Lomo Saltado
4
  • 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.
Finish & Serve
6
  • Fluff rice with a fork; stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings).

  • Divide rice and potatoes between plates in separate sections. Top potatoes with lomo saltado. Drizzle with chimichurri mayo and as much Sriracha as you like. Serve.

Review summary

Updated on Sep 2026
  • Flavor: The chimichurri mayo and overall flavor profile impressed many; some found the vinegar overpowering, and a few felt the dish was too bold or salty 🌶️
  • Ease of prep: Most found it easy and straightforward; start the potatoes early since they take the longest, and the rest comes together quickly.
  • Suggestions: Use less vinegar than called for — even for four servings, several reviewers found the full amount too sharp. Add carrots or another vegetable to the sauté for more variety, as the rice-and-potato combination felt starch-heavy to some. Consider sliced or chopped meat instead of ground turkey if you prefer a different texture.
  • Portions: The meal was filling for most; a few noted it was a lot of food, while others wished for more vegetables alongside the two starches.

This is one of the best dishes yet. The flavors are absolutely amazing. I thought rice and potatoes was too much starch before I cooked it, but not at all. Leave it on the menu!
