Chili Spiced Smoked Turkey Breast Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Mix together the fennel seed, salt, oregano, onion powder and smoked paprika in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Mix together the cornbread and milk in a medium bowl. Allow the mixture to soak for 10 minutes. Stir in the sausage, Pecorino and chili paste. Use your hands to mix well.
• Lay the turkey breasts skin-sides down on a cutting board so that they are open like a book. Pat half the stuffing onto each skinless side, leaving a 1/2-inch border, then close each half so the skin sides are up. Tie each turkey breast tightly with 4 pieces of butcher's twine about 1 1/2 to 2 inches apart. Rub the seasoning mix all over the turkey.
• Lay the bread on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Place the turkey breasts skin-sides up on the bread and drizzle the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil over the tops. Roast 30 minutes, then reduce the heat to 375 degrees F and continue to roast until the skin is brown and crisp and an instant-read thermometer reads 160 degrees F, about 40 minutes more. Allow the turkey to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Rub the Sweet BBQ Rub all over both sides of the turkey. Transfer to a disposable aluminum pan breast-side up and refrigerate overnight, uncovered, to dry brine.
• The day of roasting, let the turkey sit at room temperature for 1 hour. Add the carrots and peppers to the pan and put the turkey on a wire rack above the vegetables.
• Preheat a gas grill, charcoal grill or smoker to 350 degrees F. If using a gas or charcoal grill, set up a smoke box or small disposable aluminum pan with fruit wood chips. Once the smoke is rolling, put the turkey and vegetables on the grill in the pan, close the lid and smoke for 1 hour.
• After 1 hour, rotate the turkey and add the stock to the pan to deglaze. Continue smoking until the breast meat registers 160 degrees F and the thighs hit 165 degrees F, another 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Let the turkey rest 45 minutes to an hour while you make the gravy. Remove the carrots and peppers from the pan and set aside. Strain the drippings from the pan using a fat separator.
• To make the gravy, melt the butter in a small pot over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk well to make a roux. Slowly add the strained drippings and whisk. Let simmer to reduce to the desired consistency. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
• Slice the turkey and serve over a medley of the smoked carrots and peppers with the gravy on the side.
• Combine the turbinado sugar, granulated sugar, salt, chili powder, paprika, granulated garlic, onion powder, cayenne, cumin and pepper in a bowl. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• If using charcoal grill, place drip pan with 1/2 inch water directly under grilling area, and arrange coals around edge of firebox. Heat coals or gas grill for indirect heat.
• In small bowl, mix all ingredients except turkey and butter. Loosen skin on turkey breast in 4 or 5 places. Cut butter into small slices; place randomly under skin of turkey. Rub chili powder mixture over entire outside of turkey. Insert barbecue meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of turkey and does not touch bone.
• Place turkey, skin side down, on grill over drip pan or over unheated side of gas grill. Cover and grill over medium heat 30 minutes; turn turkey. Cover and grill 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours longer or until thermometer reads 170°F and juice of turkey is no longer pink when center is cut.
• Remove turkey from grill; cover with foil. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, green peppers and habanero pepper; cook and stir until the onion is transparent. Push these to one side of the pot, and crumble in the ground turkey. Cover, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the meat is no longer pink. Stir everything together so the garlic doesn't burn.
• Season with chili powder, red pepper flakes, paprika, cumin, oregano, pepper, hot cocoa mix and seasoned salt. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, diced tomatoes with green chilies, tomato sauce and kidney beans. Crack open a beer, and pour in about 1/3. Drink or discard the rest. Partially cover the pan, and simmer over medium heat for about 50 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Mix in the corn and hot pepper sauce, and simmer for about 10 more minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Combine the first 10 ingredients.
• Marinade Turkey breast in a large ziplock bag or dish for 2 hours.
• Soak wood chips in water for at least 1 hour.
• Drain the wood chips well and make a smoke 'bomb' using 1 cup of moistened wood chips wrapped in thick tin foil with numerous holes poked in it.
• Heat BBQ to 350-400.
• When heated turn off the right side. Place smoke 'bomb' on the side with the flame and the turkey breast, skin side up, on the right side of the grill.
• Maintain temperature of grill at about 300 degrees.
• After every hour, replace the smoke bomb with a fresh one.
• Allow meat to cook slowly using indirect heat until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees, approx 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
• Sprinkle with sage and lemon.
• Tent with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving.
• ENJOY and wait for the compliments!

Steps:

• If the turkey has skin, dice finely. Chop the turkey in ½ to ¾ inch cubes. Chop the onion and green pepper into medium pieces. Crush the garlic. Put on rubber or latex gloves. If you are using jalapeno for garnish, finely dice it. Finely dice the chipotle in abodo sauce.
• Heat oil in a dutch oven or stock pot. If you have skin, render the fat slowly. Remove the cracklings and snack on them. They are delicious. You deserve it, your dog doesn't.
• Add the onion and green pepper to the pot and sauté until the onion becomes translucent. Add the garlic and cook gently so as not to burn it. Add the dry spices and cook to release the flavors.
• Drain the beans. You may reserve ½ cup of bean liquid to help thicken the chili. I do not like beans, only tolerating cannellinis, lentils, and chickpeas, so I rinse the beans well in a colander.
• Add the turkey, beans, diced green chiles, chile in abodo sauce, chicken broth (and reserved bean liquid if using) to the pot. Stir well. Cover and simmer 30 to 45 minutes. Stir frequently. Add a bit of chicken broth if it is getting dry.
• Taste & adjust seasonings. If the chili is soupy, add 1 or 2 tablespoons of masa harina and stir thoroughly. Cook 10 - 15 minutes more to thicken. If it is too dry, add a little chicken broth.
• Just before serving, add ¼ to 1/3 cup whipping cream. If you are using turkey breast, this dish is very low fat, and the cream will help, especially if you do not like sour cream in your chili. If you make this in advance, do not add the cream until you reheat it.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, mix together the mustard, garlic, cumin, oregano, allspice, chili powder, brown sugar and oil. Place the turkey breast in a 9 by13-inch roasting pan. Spread the mustard mixture over the top and sides of the turkey to form a crust. Add the onions, carrots, and chicken stock to the pan. Roast for 45 minutes. Cover the pan loosely with foil and continue to bake for another 45 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 175 degrees F. Allow the turkey to rest for 20 minutes before serving.
• Remove the vegetables and arrange on a serving platter. Remove the turkey and place on a cutting board. Pour about 1/2 cup of the pan juices into a small saucepan. Whisk in the flour until smooth. Whisk in the remaining pan juices. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until the mixture thickens. Season the pan juices with salt and pepper and pour into a serving pitcher.
• To serve, slice the turkey into 1/4-inch slices. Arrange the turkey slices on the serving platter with the roasted vegetables and serve with the pan juices.

Steps:

Reduce heat to medium low and bring to a simmer, uncovered. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chili has thickened, about 50 minutes. Add black beans and cook until heated through, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Place a heavy bottomed saucepan or dutch oven over medium high heat and add olive oil. Add onion, green onion bottoms, shallots and garlic. Saute until soft, stirring often to avoid scorching garlic.
