Simple enough for the ingredients huh!

Turkey with Roasted Vegetables
From the Glycemic Index Cookbook, Gina Steer, Sian Lewis, and Charlotte Watts
Courtesy of www.turnkeyqualitycars.com
Serves 4

Ingredients
4 skinless turkey breast fillets, about 4 oz each
1 fresh red chili, seeded
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1 onion, cut into wedges
1 zucchini, cut into chunks
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into thick strips
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and cut into thick strips
1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
8 oz. vine-ripened cherry or small plum tomatoes
1 tbsp shredded fresh basil
Pepper
10 oz. freshly cooked fettuccini or pasta of your choice

Directions
1.       Preheat oven to 375. Lightly rinse the turkey breast fillets and pat dry with paper towels. Finely chop the chili and crush two of the garlic cloves, then mix together and rub over the turkey. Place on a plate and cover loosely with parchment paper, then let stand in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

2.       Cut the remaining garlic cloves in half and place in a roasting pan with the remaining prepared vegetables except for the tomatoes, then drizzle over one tablespoon of the oil. Grind over some pepper.

3.       Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, turning the vegetables over occasionally. Place the turkey steaks on top and continue to roast for 15 minutes. Then add the tomatoes and roast for an additional 10 minutes, or until the turkey is thoroughly cooked. Sprinkle with the shredded basil and serve with freshly cooked vegetables.

So lets start by finely chopping the garlic and red chili and mixing together.

Roast the veggies for 15 minutes, then place the turkey fillets which you had already rubbed the garlic and red chili on even though I neglected to take that picture, nonetheless,

Roast for 15 more minutes and then add the tomatoes and cook for an additional ten minutes.

This is such a fresh, light meal that really fills you up.

This dish has no added salt in it, so you may need to add some salt at this time. But that red chili and garlic rub is pretty tasty.

And look at these roasted vegetables. So sweet and flavorful.

I think it just might be time to eat.
