Turkey Tail Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange the bacon in a single layer in a large nonstick skillet and cook over medium heat, flipping occasionally, until well browned and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate. Pour the rendered bacon fat into a small heatproof bowl and wipe out the skillet; reserve both. Once the bacon has cooled slightly, roughly chop into small pieces.
• Lay 1 tortilla on a clean work surface. Top with 3 slices of the cheese, tearing some of the slices to fit in an even layer. Next, top with 3 slices of the turkey, making sure to cover the cheese completely. Spread 1 tablespoon of the ranch dressing over the turkey, then sprinkle with half of the chopped bacon. Tightly roll up the tortilla, tucking the filling in as you go. Wrap tightly in a 12-by-12-inch piece of foil, pinching the ends to seal. Repeat with the remaining tortilla, cheese, turkey, ranch and bacon.
• Combine the hot sauce and butter in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter has melted and the sauce is smooth, about 4 minutes. Keep warm.
• Return the reserved skillet to the stove over medium heat. Place the foil-wrapped rolls in the skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until heated through, about 4 minutes per side. (Wrapping and cooking the rolls in foil first will help keep their shape for easy slicing.) Remove the rolls and discard the foil. Add 1 tablespoon of the reserved bacon fat to the skillet. Return the rolls to the skillet, seam-side down, and cook until the tortilla is well browned on all sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
• Slice each roll crosswise into about 10 pinwheels. Serve with the Buffalo sauce and more ranch dressing, for dipping.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the egg, oats, salt and pepper. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Pat into a 12x9-in. rectangle on a piece of heavy-duty foil; set aside., In a large saucepan, saute onion and celery in butter until tender. Remove from the heat. Stir in water, sage and thyme. Add stuffing; stir until well coated. Spoon over turkey to within 1 in. of edges. Roll up, jelly-roll style, starting with a short side and peeling away foil while rolling., Place loaf, seam side down, in a greased 9x5-in. loaf pan. Place bacon strips over top. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 60-70 minutes or until meat is no longer pink and a thermometer reads 165°.

Steps:

• Bone the turkey: Place it on a work surface, breast side down. Slice skin along backbone from neck to tail. Cut and pull flesh and skin away from carcass. Cut flesh from saber-shaped bone near wing, and remove bone. Sever ball-and-socket wing joints so that they are separated from carcass but still attached to skin. Continue cutting breast meat away from bone up to the ridge of the breastbone. Turn turkey around, and repeat on other side. Pull gently to separate breastbone and carcass flesh (save carcass for homemade turkey stock). Cut off wing tip and middle section, leaving largest wing bone; save for stock. Holding outside of wing bone, cut through tendons; scrape meat from bone. Pull out bone, using knife to free it. Holding inside end of leg bone, cut through tendons attaching the flesh to the bone. Use knife to scrape meat from bone, pushing it away from end of bone. Cut bone free of skin. Cut out any sinews still remaining on leg. Repeat on other side, then push leg and wing skin side out. Butterfly breast so that meat completely covers skin. Cover with plastic wrap. Lightly pound meat until even.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the stuffing: Place a large skillet over medium heat; when it is hot, add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add onion, garlic, 1 tablespoon chopped rosemary, sage, and mustard. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and translucent but not brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl, and set aside to cool. Add the ground turkey and pork, breadcrumbs, eggs, cream, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the bowl. Stir to combine.
• Lay turkey breast on a work surface, skin side down, and season with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons chopped rosemary. Place stuffing in the middle of the turkey. Roll turkey up to form a long tube; use toothpicks or wooden skewers to hold in place. Tie every 2 inches with kitchen twine. Drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with remaining teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Tuck rosemary branches along the top of the roll under the twine. Place on roasting rack over a large pan.
• Roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 150 degrees, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Remove from oven. Brush with maple syrup. Return to oven, and roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees to 165 degrees, about 20 minutes more.
• Remove from oven, and let rest for 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, remove twine, and cut crosswise into 1/2- to 1-inch-thick slices. Place slices on a platter, and garnish with watercress. Serve with cranberry compote.

Steps:

• Bring water and margarine to a boil in a saucepan; stir in stuffing mix. Cover and remove from heat. Let stand until stuffing is softened, about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
• Spoon about 1/2 cup stuffing over each slice of turkey. Roll turkey around stuffing and arrange rolls in a microwave-safe dish, seam-side down. Pour gravy over rolls.
• Heat in a microwave on high until gravy is bubbly, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first six ingredients; beat until smooth. Spread over the tortillas. Sprinkle with onion; top with turkey and lettuce. Roll up tightly jelly-roll style; serve immediately.
