Like Vasco da Gama and Ferdinand Magellan, piri piri originates in Portugal. Unlike them, piri piri seasoning is delicious and not at all dead. It lives deliciously mixed with healthy ground turkey, tomatoes, and shallots, filling fresh poblanos with mighty flavor. Some Portuguese get straits named after them; this Portuguese seasoning gives you straight sensory delight. Tip: This recipe has a shallot, which sometimes is rough to mince. Easiest way to mince shallot? Make thin slices lengthwise, then slices across, resulting in minced shallot.

Peel and mince shallot.
Halve lime. Cut one half into wedges and juice the other half.Halve tomatoes.Trim cucumber and cut into 1/4" dice.Stem poblano peppers, seed, and halve lengthwise. Poblano peppers can vary in spice level; most are mild, but a few can be quite hot. Wash hands and cutting board after prepping.If using flank steak or steak strips, separate into a single layer and pat dry. -
2 Start the Peppers
Place peppers on prepared baking sheet, cut-side down. Spray peppers with cooking spray.
Roast in hot oven until peppers are tender, but not completely cooked, 10-12 minutes.Don't worry if peppers char a bit; this adds flavor to the dish.While peppers roast, make filling. -
3 Make the Filling
Heat 2 tsp. olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
Add ground turkey, demi-glace,1/4 cup water, shallot, tomatoes, and seasoning to hot pan. Stir occasionally, breaking meat up with a spoon, until tomatoes soften and no pink remains, 7-9 minutes.If using ground beef, steak strips or flank steak, follow same instructions and cook until no pink remains, 4-6 minutes.Remove from burner and let cool, 5 minutes. -
4 Finish the Peppers
Carefully, flip peppers so cut-side is up and distribute filling evenly among halves. You may not use all the filling.
Roast until peppers are fork-tender, 8-10 minutes.While peppers roast, make sauce. -
5 Make Cucumber Sauce and Finish Dish
In a mixing bowl, combine sour cream, cucumber, 2 tsp. lime juice, 1 tsp. olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
