Instructions
1
Heat the char-grill pan or grill. Meanwhile, slice the courgette at a steep angle to give long, thin slices. Spray them with the cooking spray and cook in batches in the char-grill pan or under the grill, until tender. Set aside.
2
Spray the turkey steaks with the cooking spray; sprinkle both sides with the Cajun seasoning and char-grill or grill for 3-4 minutes on each side.
3
While the turkey is cooking, arrange the salad leaves on a serving platter with red peppers, tomatoes and chargrilled courgettes.
4
When the turkey steaks are cooked, transfer them to a chopping board and let them rest for 2 minutes. Then slice them into thin strips and arrange on top of the salad. Squeeze the lime or lemon juice over, season with ground pepper, then serve.
