Jammin Turkey Club Recipes

TURKEY CLUB

Steps:

• In a large saucepan filled with 1/2 gallon of water, bring water to a simmer. Add all Brine ingredients and stir. Allow to come to a boil, then cool broth. Add turkey and place in refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours.
• Place bacon strips onto cookie sheet. Place in oven for 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from the oven and drain on paper towels.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F
• Remove turkey from brine and place into a roasting pan. Pat dry turkey. Combine mayonnaise, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the turkey breast and under the skin. Place in the oven and roast for about 1 1/2 hours or until the turkey reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Make sure to let the turkey rest before slicing.
• Slice the turkey and assemble the sandwiches by topping 1 piece of bread with the Cilantro Mayonnaise Sauce, turkey, bacon, another piece of bread, Cilantro Mayonnaise Sauce, turkey, tomato, lettuce, avocado, and a final piece of bread spread with the Cilantro Mayonnaise Sauce. Repeat with remaining bread and ingredients.
• Combine all the ingredients and mix well.

JAMMIN' TURKEY CLUB

Steps:

• For the peach chutney: Combine the peaches, brown sugar, vinegar, pineapples, onions, bell peppers, garlic, cinnamon, red pepper flakes, salt, crystallized ginger and jalapenos in a large saucepan and cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until thickened and "jammy," about 45 minutes.
• For the turkey club: Fold the crepe in half to form a half-moon shape and place on a hot griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Spread 3 tablespoons chutney evenly over the surface and sprinkle with the mozzarella (save the remaining chutney for another use). Top with the turkey and bacon and allow to rest on the hot griddle until the cheese is melty and the ingredients warmed. Top with the greens and drizzle with the aioli. Pull up one corner of the crepe and fold over to cover half of the sandwich, then roll over one more time in the same direction to enclose all the ingredients and form a cone-shaped sandwich. Press down lightly and allow to rest for another minute or so on the griddle until lightly crisped and warm. Flip and crisp the reverse side. Serve warm.
• Stir together the mayonnaise and horseradish in a bowl.

TURKEY CLUB

Steps:

• Bread: Use 3 slices of a good white sandwich bread (pain au lait or Pullman loaves are ideal). Be sure to toast it!
• Lettuce: Bibb and Boston lettuce both have nice small, soft leaves that fit well on the sandwich; shredded iceberg can be unruly.
• Tomatoes: Add 2 slices of tomato to each layer of a club; season with salt and pepper before you continue building the sandwich.
• Turkey: Fresh roasted turkey is key. Rub a 2 1/4-pound skinless, boneless turkey breast with olive oil; sprinkle generously with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Roast 10 minutes at 425˚ F, then reduce to 350˚ F and roast until the internal temperature is 160˚ F, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool, then slice.
• Mayonnaise: Spread a thick layer of mayo on each slice of toasted bread.
• Bacon: You'll want 3 slices per sandwich (1 1/2 slices in each layer). Halve the slices first, then cook in a skillet over medium heat until crisp.

BREADLESS DOUBLE-DECKER TURKEY CLUB

Steps:

• Core the apple and slice into 1/4-inch-thick round slices, slicing from the center of the apple to get even pieces. Coat the apple slices with lemon juice. Place down an apple slice as the base of the sandwich and top with 2 slices of turkey, 1 slice of cheese crisscrossed, 1 slice of bacon crisscrossed and 1/4 cup arugula. Top with another slice of apple and repeat with the remaining ingredients. Top with another apple slice. If transporting for an on-the-go lunch, wrap the sandwich tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to eat.

SHORT STACK TURKEY CLUB

Steps:

• Toast the bread in a toaster to desired doneness.
• In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, herbs, garlic and a pinch each salt and pepper. Spread 1 tablespoon of the mayo mixture on one side of each slice of bread, crust to crust.
• To build the sandwiches, layer the ingredients on four slices in the following order: Place one piece of lettuce, then two slices of tomato side by side, another piece of lettuce, two slices of bacon and then finally, the turkey.
• Top each sandwich with another slice of bread, mayo-side down. Cut the sandwiches in half with a serrated knife and serve with your favorite potato chips.
