Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, toss diced butternut squash with canola oil, cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the seasoned squash evenly on a lined baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd. Roast for 35 minutes until tender, then broil for an additional 3 minutes until caramelized and golden brown.
- Boil water in a kettle and pour it over the couscous in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let it sit for 7 minutes, allowing it to absorb. Fluff gently with a fork and set aside.
- Heat canola oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the minced red onion for about 3 minutes until softened. Add the ground turkey along with the lemon pepper seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Cook the turkey mixture for 3–4 minutes without stirring to allow it to brown. Then break it up with a spatula and mix in the chopped Swiss chard, cooking for another 2 minutes until wilted and the turkey is fully cooked.
- Assemble your plates by adding a generous amount of couscous, followed by the savory turkey mixture and roasted butternut squash. Drizzle fresh lemon juice on top right before serving.
