Preheat your oven to 200°C and boil your kettle. Trim the root and the dark green leafy part from the leek. Halve lengthways then thinly slice widthways. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Trim the green beans then chop into thirds.
Pour the boiling water (see ingredients for amount) into a measuring jug. Add the chicken stock and stir to dissolve. Pop the turkey steak onto a plate and drizzle on a little oil. Season with salt and black pepper and sprinkle over half the thyme. Rub the flavourings into the meat, then set aside. IMPORTANT! Remember to wash your hands after handling raw meat!
Heat a splash of oil in an ovenproof dish on medium heat, add the leek. Cook until soft, 5-6 mins. Add the garlic, green beans, arborio rice and remaining thyme. Stir to coat the rice in the oil, then pour in the chicken stock and bring to the boil. Cover with a tight fitting lid (or foil). Bake on the middle shelf of your oven for 20 mins.
Meanwhile, heat a splash of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat. Pan-fry the turkey steak until browned, 5-6 mins on each side. IMPORTANT: The turkey is cooked when no longer pink in the middle! When cooked, remove the pan from the heat and sprinkle half the hard Italian cheese over the turkey. Leave to rest for a minute on a board.
While the turkey cooks, half the tomatoes and pop into a bowl. Season with a good pinch of salt, a drizzle of olive oil (see ingredients for amount) and a small pinch of sugar (if you have some!).
When the risotto has absorbed all of the stock, remove it from the oven and stir in the butter and remaining hard Italian cheese. Taste and season with salt and black pepper, then spoon into bowls. Slice the turkey steak into 1cm thick strips and place on top. Serve the tomato salad on the side. Enjoy!
