Tex-mex-inspired comfort food: tender turkey thigh paired with cassava root, romaine lettuce and red bell pepper and fettuccine, finished with sorrel and epazote and a hit of cayenne pepper. 1. Pat the turkey thigh dry and season with sea salt, cayenne pepper. 2. Heat walnut oil in a heavy pan and grill the turkey thigh until it develops a deep golden crust, about 22 minutes. 3.
