Directions
Turkey:
1. Mix together the olive oil and spices and stir to combine.

3. Heat barbecue to medium-high heat and place breast on the grill.
4. Turn once or twice while cooking and remove when internal temperature reaches 165F (74C), approximately 20-25 minutes.
Mushrooms:
1. While turkey starts grilling, place cast-iron skillet on barbecue so it heats up.
2' Add mushrooms, oil and garlic and toss gently to combine.
3' Cook for 7-8 minutes without stirring, and then carefully toss them around to brown the other side.
4. Once golden and crisp, 10-15 minutes, remove from heat and toss with tarragon and lemon juice
Vinaigrette:
1. Whisk first 4 ingredients together until smooth.
2. Slowly add olive oil in a steady stream while whisking constantly until vinaigrette emulsifies. Keeps for 1 week covered in the fridge.
Salad:

2. Make vinaigrette and add 2-3 Tbsp (30-45 mL) of it to the salad.
