Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1/2 cup (76 grams), plus 1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 cup (100 grams) loosely packed light brown sugar
1 cup of water (240 grams)
4 sprigs fresh thyme
4 sprigs fresh sage
2 dried bay leaves
2 teaspoons black peppercorns
1 lemon, peel removed with a vegetable peeler, and juiced
6 cups cold buttermilk
3 (453 to 566 grams) skin-on, boneless turkey breasts (about 1 to 1 1/4 pound each)
3 cups (360 grams) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (64 grams) cornstarch
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
Cranberry Mayo, recipe follows
Ground sumac, for garnish
Flaky salt, for garnish
Lemon zest, for garnish
3/4 cup (168 grams) mayonnaise
1/4 cup (70 grams) whole berry canned cranberry sauce
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven, add 1/2 cup salt, brown sugar, water, thyme, sage, bay leaves, peppercorns and lemon peel. Bring to a simmer just to dissolve the sugar and salt. Turn off the heat. Stir in the cold buttermilk and lemon juice. Add the turkey breasts. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
  • Remove the turkey from the refrigerator 1 hour before you're ready to cook and allow to come to room temperature.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Pour enough neutral oil into a large Dutch oven to fill 1/3 of the way up the sides of the pot. Heat over medium heat until the oil reaches 350 degrees F.
  • Combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, paprika, 1 tablespoon salt and poultry seasoning in a large bowl. Stir in 1/4 cup of the buttermilk brine a little at a time to make small clumps.
  • When the oil is at 350 degrees F, remove the turkey breasts from the brine and dredge well in the flour mixture. Carefully add to the oil. (The oil temperature will drop initially, you want it to settle at about 330 degrees, so adjust the heat accordingly.) Cook, turning occasionally, until the coating is crisp and deeply browned and the internal temperature of the turkey is about 160 degrees F, 15 to 18 minutes depending on the size. (If you have larger size turkey breasts and they are brown before they are cooked through, you can finish for a few minutes in the oven at 350 degrees F .)
  • Remove the fried turkey to a cooling rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. Let the turkey cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • While still hot, sprinkle with the sumac, flaky salt and lemon zest.
  • Keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
  • To serve, slice the turkey into thick slices against the grain. Serve with the cranberry mayo on the side.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, cranberry sauce, lemon juice and a healthy grinding of black pepper.

Provided by Hez

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Turkey     Ground Turkey Recipes

Time 55m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup butter
1 onion, finely chopped
½ cup finely chopped celery
3 pounds ground turkey breast
1 (6 ounce) package chicken-flavored dry bread stuffing mix
2 eggs
16 hamburger buns, split
1 (16 ounce) can cranberry sauce
whipped cream cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • Heat the butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and cook and stir the onion and celery until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Place the cooked onion and celery in a large bowl with the ground turkey, stuffing mix, and eggs; mix to thoroughly combine. Form the mixture into 16 patties. Unlike hamburger, these patties will not change shape while cooking, so make them even in size.
  • Grill the turkey burgers on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Place each patty on a hamburger bun, and top with cranberry sauce and a dollop of whipped cream cheese to serve.

TURKEY BURGERS WITH CRANBERRY RELISH



Turkey Burgers with Cranberry Relish image

Provided by Wanna Make This?

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds 93-percent lean ground turkey
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 slices American cheese or sharp Cheddar
4 brioche hamburger buns, lightly toasted
Cranberry Relish, recipe follows
12 bread and butter pickles
8 ounces fresh or frozen and thawed cranberries (about 2 cups)
1 small Granny Smith apple, peeled and roughly chapped (about 7 ounces)
Zest and juice of a small orange (about 1 tablespoon zest and 1/4 cup juice)
1/3 cup sugar
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the caramelized onions: Add the oil to a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the onions and 1 teaspoon salt and cook until the onions have softened and are starting to brown in spots, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking until the onions are deeply browned and caramelized, 40 to 50 more minutes, stirring frequently toward the end of the process. Season with salt if needed. Transfer to a small bowl.
  • For the turkey burgers: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Stir to combine, and then add the turkey and mix until just combined; do not overmix or the meat will get tough. Lightly wet your hands then divide the mixture into 4 equal portions. Pat into 4-inch wide patties (about 3/4-inch thick) and put on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Add the turkey patties (can be done in batches if needed) and cook until browned on the first side, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and top each patty with a slice of cheese. Cover with a lid or baking sheet until the cheese is melted, the burgers are browned on the second side and the internal temperature is 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 4 to 5 more minutes.
  • To serve: Spread 2 tablespoons of the Cranberry Relish on the bottom half of each bun. Layer each with 3 bread and butter pickles, a patty and 1/4 of the caramelized onions. Top with the other half of bun. Serve immediately. Any leftover cranberry relish can be kept in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
  • Add the cranberries, apple, orange zest and juice, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a food processor and pulse until the texture is like a chunky pesto. Transfer to a small bowl and refrigerate while you prepare the other burger components.
