Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F.Wash and dry all produce. Strip 1 1/2 tsp thyme leaves (dbl for 4 ppl) from stems, then finely chop. Peel, then slice carrot into 1/4-inch rounds. Juice half the lemon (whole lemon for 4 ppl). Peel, then cut potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces.
Add carrots, thyme and 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Roast in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until fork tender, 16-18 min.
While carrots roast, combine potatoes, 2 tsp salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch) in a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Simmer uncovered until fork-tender, 10-12 min. Drain and return potatoes to the same pot, off heat. Mash 2 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl) and cream cheese into potatoes until creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
While potatoes cook, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. While pan heats, pat turkey dry with paper towels. Season with salt and Montreal Steak Spice. When pan is hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then turkey. Cook until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook in 2 batches for 4 ppl, using 1 tbsp oil for each batch!) Remove pan from heat. Transfer turkey to a baking sheet. Bake in the top of the oven until cooked through, 6-8 min. Carefully wipe pan clean.
While turkey cooks, heat the same pan over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl), then sprinkle flour over top. Cook, whisking constantly, until golden, 1-2 min. Slowly whisk in 3/4 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl), broth concentrate, lemon juice and honey. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, whisking often, until sauce thickens slightly, 3-4 min. Add 1 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl), then swirl to melt.
Thinly slice turkey. Divide turkey, carrots and mashed potatoes between plates. Spoon honey-lemon sauce over turkey. Sprinkle with crispy shallots.
