Zest, then juice lime. Whisk together half the lime juice, garlic puree and Jerk Spice Blend in a medium bowl. Pat turkey dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper. Add turkey to the medium bowl with marinade.
While turkey marinates, cut the cucumber into 1/2-inch half moons. Cut tomato into 1/2-inch pieces. Roughly chop cilantro. Add cilantro, vinegar, remaining lime juice, 1/2 tsp sugar and 1 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl both for 4 ppl) to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium. When hot, add pepitas to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 4-5 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!) Transfer to a plate.
Remove turkey from marinade. Heat the same pan over medium heat. Add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then turkey. Cook until golden-brown all over and cooked through, 8-10 min.** (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook turkey in 2 batches for 4 ppl, using 1 tbsp oil per batch!)
While turkey cooks, add spinach, tomatoes and cucumbers to the large bowl with dressing. Toss to combine. Thinly slice turkey. Divide salad and turkey between plates. Sprinkle with pepitas and feta.
