Ingredients

2 turkey tenderloins (about 1 pound each)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons ground cumin
Olive oil
2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed (2-inch pieces)
2 ripe mangoes, peeled and flesh sliced from seed
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1/4 cup plain yogurt

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Season turkey tenderloins all over with salt, black pepper and cumin.
In a large skillet over medium high heat, add about 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil. Once heated, add the turkey tenderloins and saute on 1 side. Add the potatoes to the pan, flip the turkey, when ready and place the pan into the preheated oven. Roast turkey and potatoes for about 15 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 170 to 180 degrees F. Let turkey stand 10 minutes before slicing crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices.
Meanwhile, in a blender combine mangoes, mint, lime juice, mustard, and ginger. Puree until blended. Add yogurt and puree until smooth. Serve 1/2 of the turkey with all of the sauce spooned over top and all of the sweet potatoes.
Reserve remaining turkey for Thai Turkey and Rice.

SWEET POTATOES WITH STAR ANISE, GINGER, AND LIME

SWEET POTATOES WITH STAR ANISE, GINGER, AND LIME image

Categories Vegetable

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 pound sweet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 star anise, finely crushed
1-inch piece fresh ginger, finely grated
1 lime, zested and juiced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and toss. Arrange potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 10 minutes, then shake or flip the potatoes over. Continue roasting for 10 minutes or until tender and slightly browned. Serve warm or at room temperature. Variation: There's a nice depth of flavor that comes from roasting all of the ingredients together, but those who really love ginger and lime might enjoy this variation. Instead of adding the ginger, lime zest and juice to the olive oil mixture, toss them with the potatoes after roasting for a hotter and zestier flavor.

Tips:

Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size. This will help them cook evenly.
Pierce the sweet potatoes before baking: This will help them cook faster and more evenly.
Bake the sweet potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a knife into the center of a sweet potato; it should slide in easily.
Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before cutting them open: This will help prevent them from breaking apart.
Serve the sweet potatoes with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include butter, sour cream, marshmallows, and nuts.

Conclusion:

Ginger-lime sweet potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying dish, give ginger-lime sweet potatoes a try!
