Or is it the Battle of Wayna Daga where we killed their Ottoman commander and the rest of their troops retreated?

Maybe the Battle of Baçente? Another great victory against the Ottomans.

Não, isso foi na Etiópia no Corno de África, mas estou mesmo a falar de Peninsula e Golfo Arabico. Creio que eles quiseram tomar um forte/cidade qualquer e não levaram foi nada.
Por acaso temos um score muito bom contra os Turcos.....

Batalha do Ameixial - Battle of Ameixial
PT
A Batalha do Ameixial foi fundamental para que Portugal se mantivesse como Portugal e tivesse chegado ao séc. XXI, como País independente. Com efeito, esta Batalha insere-se numa forte ofensiva espanhola, no sentido de conseguir retomar o País perdido.
O resultado desta Batalha teve importante significado e consequências para os dois lados. Para Portugal, a Batalha do Ameixial foi a mais importante vitória militar da Restauração, pois ela resolveu possivelmente a mais perigosa situação que Portugal enfrentou durante o período de 1640 a 1668.
A Batalha do Ameixial passou à história como uma das mais violentas e esforçadas, mas também das mais gloriosas nas Guerras da Restauração.
Para Espanha, esta Batalha contribuiu para que crescentemente alastrasse a convicção, nomeadamente na Corte e na nobreza espanhola, de que seria praticamente impossível a submissão de Portugal pelas armas, e que portanto seria inútil o prosseguimento da luta.
No plano internacional, a vitória portuguesa no Ameixial convenceu cada vez mais a França e a Inglaterra de que seria desejável o estabelecimento de um tratado de paz entre Portugal e Espanha.
É assim possível afirmar que com a inequívoca vitória portuguesa na Batalha do Ameixial, terminou uma das maiores ameaças à restauração da independência portuguesa e se abriu o caminho à existência de um País livre.
ENG
The Battle of Ameixial, was fought on 8 June 1663, near the village of Santa Vitória do Ameixial, some 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) north-west of Estremoz, between Spanish and Portuguese as part of the Portuguese Restoration War.
In the spring of 1663, the Spanish had undertaken their most successful attack on Portugal, since the beginning of the war.
Under command of John of Austria the Younger, son of Philip IV of Spain, the greater part of the south of Portugal was overrun. The important city of Évora was taken on 22 May, opening perspectives for a march on Lisbon, 135 kilometres (84 mi) to the west.
But the lack of ammunition, food and money paralysed the Spanish army. The Portuguese raised a 17,000 men strong army led by Sancho Manoel de Vilhena, aided by Frederick Schomberg, 1st Duke of Schomberg, Fernando de Meneses, Count of Ericeira and other senior officers, and marched against the Spanish. The Spanish commander decided to retreat to a strategic position at the north east of Évora and wait for the enemy, leaving a garrison of 3,700 in Évora.
The Portuguese army was reinforced by three regiments (1 cavalry & 2 infantry) of about 3,000 troops, from England (mostly from around the British isles) and were put under the command of the Duke of Schomberg. Also included were a small number of mercenaries from France. Of this foreign contingent, almost 2000 fought in Ameixial, about 1600 incorporated in the infantry and 300 in the cavalry.
Don John of Austria standard was captured when his squadron was almost totally killed. The standard was later presented to King Afonso VI of Portugal himself.
The Spanish casualties were very high, all of their artillery and baggage was captured, and the army was forced to retreat to Badajoz in Extremadura. When the Spanish garrison of Évora of 3,700 men capitulated on 24 June 1663, the whole expedition was a complete failure.
A memorial stone was placed on the site of the battlefield.
In Spain, the battle is better known as the Battle of Estremoz.
