Instructions

1. Cut turkey escalope into strips approx. 1 cm wide, halve the breakfast bacon lengthways. Lay the turkey and bacon strips on top of each other and place them in a wave shape on 8 kebab skewers. Mix the soy sauce and 1 tablespoon sesame oil with a pressed garlic clove and marinate the skewers in it for 1-2 hours.
2. For the lentil vegetables, put 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan and sauté the diced ham, ginger, shallot, leek and carrot one after the other. Put the pan aside, closed, so that the vegetables can cook through slowly.
3. Blanch the lentils in salted water for 5 minutes and drain. Add the tomato paste and the other seasoning ingredients, deglaze with the port wine and reduce briefly. Then fill up with the poultry stock and cook the lentils until soft for about 30 minutes. Try in between, because lentils can have different cooking times depending on their age.
4. Finally add the vegetables from the pan, bind with the cold butter and season with balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, pepper and salt.
5. Heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil in a pan, add rosemary and thyme to the hot oil and briefly sear the turkey skewers on both sides. Turn off the plate and let the meat cook through. It only takes a few minutes. Do not fry too long, because turkey meat becomes dry and tough very quickly. Season the skewers with a little pepper, salt will not be necessary, because the soy marinade and bacon bring enough salt with them.
6. Put the lentil vegetables on the plate and place the turkey skewers on top. Spread the chopped parsley on top.
