Method

  1. Heat the grill and line a baking tray with foil. Mix the yogurt, garlic, paprika and a squeeze of lemon, then stir in the turkey. Arrange on the tray.

  2. Meanwhile, cook the bulghar following pack instructions, then add all the remaining ingredients, including the rest of the lemon juice. Grill the turkey for 5-8 mins, then serve hot or cold with the bulghar salad. Will keep in the fridge for 2 days.
