Method
Place the turkey steaks in a large ziplock bag. Add half the lime zest and juice along with the garlic, lemongrass, chilli, fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil and 1 tablespoon of the honey, then toss to coat. Place in the fridge to marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Shake off any excess marinade and place the steaks on the pan. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, until nicely browned. Remove from the pan and allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
While the steaks are cooking, whisk together the remaining lime zest and juice with the remaining tablespoon of the sesame oil and honey in a large bowl. Add the courgettes, carrot and sesame seeds and stir to coat in the dressing.
Place the courgette salad in an airtight container and top with the grilled turkey, peanuts and coriander leaves.
