Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Preheat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • Juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
  • Pat turkey dry with paper towels. Season with half of the Zesty Garlic Blend (use all for 4 servings) and pepper. (NOTE: If turkey steaks are thicker then 1 inch, place each piece on a cutting board and cover with plastic wrap. Using a rolling pin or heavy-bottomed pan, pound each turkey steak until 1-inch thick.)
Cook turkey
2
  • To the pan, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then turkey steaks. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook in 2 batches if needed.) Pan-fry for 1-2 min, flipping halfway through, until golden. Transfer turkey to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • To a medium bowl, add pesto, half the Parmesan, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) lemon juice and breadcrumbs. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. 
  • Divide Parmesan-pesto mixture between turkey steaks and spread into an even layer. Cook in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, until cooked through.**
Start alfredo sauce
3
  • Reheat the same large non-stick pan over high. Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, cream, remaining Zesty Garlic Blend, cream cheese and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water. Bring to a boil and cook for 2-4 min, stirring frequently, until cream cheese melts.
  • Reduce heat to medium, then add penne and toss to combine. Cook for 2-4 min, until penne is tender.
Finish penne
4
  • Meanwhile, cut baby tomatoes in half.
  • To the pan with penne and sauce, add tomatoes and spinach. Toss to combine. Cook for 2-3 min, until sauce is slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
Finish and serve
