INGREDIENTS

6 oz ground turkey

0.5 medium ripe plantain

0.5 cup non-fat Greek yogurt

2 tsp avocado oil

1 tbsp fresh lime juice

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.5 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp onion powder

1 tbsp chopped cilantro

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a medium mixing bowl, mash the ripe plantain with a fork until it reaches a mostly smooth consistency with just a few small chunks remaining.

• 2

  Add the ground turkey, garlic powder, onion powder, and half of the sea salt and black pepper to the mashed plantain.

• 3

  Mix the ingredients thoroughly by hand or with a spatula until the plantain is evenly distributed throughout the turkey.

• 4

  Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into flat, round patties about half an inch thick.

• 5

  Heat the avocado oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

• 6

  Carefully place the fritters in the skillet and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side, ensuring the turkey is fully cooked and the plantain has caramelized into a deep golden brown.

• 7

  While the fritters are searing, combine the Greek yogurt, lime juice, chopped cilantro, and the remaining salt and pepper in a small bowl to create the zesty dip.

• 8

  Remove the fritters from the heat and serve immediately alongside the chilled yogurt dip.
