Instructions

1

Preheat oven to 400 deg F (200 deg C). Toss cubed sweet potatoes with half the olive oil, sea salt, and a pinch of cinnamon. Roast for 25-30 minutes until edges are caramelized and tender.

2

In a bowl, combine ground turkey with finely minced fresh parsley, minced garlic, a dash of cumin, and black pepper. Shape into four small, tight patties.

3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the turkey keftedes for 4-5 minutes per side until deeply browned and cooked through. They should be juicy and fragrant with toasted spices.

4

In the same skillet, wilt the spinach over medium heat with the remaining olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, seasoning with a touch of salt.

5

To plate, arrange the roasted sweet potatoes alongside the turkey keftedes and the vibrant, wilted spinach. Serve immediately, garnishing with extra fresh parsley and a final bright squeeze of lemon.
