Quick, simple and comforting this delicious 20-minute recipe from our Head Chef André is the perfect thing for cosy nights at home. Super lean and a great source of protein, turkey is a great addition to this weeknight favourite and works brilliantly with the classic flavours in this dish. Green beans, onion, sage, and lentils are gently combined to create a velvety sauce that works brilliantly with the golden pan-fried turkey steaks. Topped with a sprinkling of chopped walnuts for an added layer of texture, you can't go wrong with this delicious recipe.
