TURKEY WITH CURRIED CREAM SAUCE



Turkey with Curried Cream Sauce image

Give plain old turkey a brand-new spin with classic Indian spices. My version's pretty mild, but if you're in the mood for fire, add extra curry and a shake or two of cayenne pepper. This dish disappears fast, no matter who's at the table. -Lori Lockrey, Scarborough, Ontario

CHEF JOHN'S PEANUT CURRY CHICKEN



Chef John's Peanut Curry Chicken image

I decided to not follow any specific recipe from any particular country or culture, but instead I made a simple composite of every peanut curry I've ever come across. I didn't use coconut milk, as I feel that's a little too sweet and rich for the peanut butter. I loved how this came out, and I can't imagine it being any richer.

TURKEY WITH CURRIED PEANUT SAUCE



Turkey With Curried Peanut Sauce image

This is one of my favorite recipes from Better Homes and Garden's New Dieter's Cookbook. The best part of this dish is that it is only 184 delicious calories a serving. You can also pair the zesty peanut sauce with broiled or grilled pork chops. Top each serving with a few crushed roasted peanuts, if desired and serve on a bed of rice with some steamed broccoli spears.

6 tablespoons coarsely chopped lightly salted peanuts, divided
1 1/3 cups coleslaw mix (preferably green and red cabbage with carrots) without dressing, divided

Tips for Making Turkey with Curried Peanut Sauce:

  • Use a high-quality peanut butter. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the sauce, so don't skimp on this ingredient.
  • Toast the peanuts before adding them to the sauce. This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Use a variety of spices in the sauce. This will give it a complex flavor that will complement the turkey.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the heat level of the sauce. If you like it spicy, add more cayenne pepper or chili powder. If you prefer a milder sauce, reduce the amount of these spices.
  • Let the sauce simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
  • Serve the turkey with rice, noodles, or vegetables. This will help to round out the meal and make it more satisfying.
