Turkey Chopped Steak With Peas And Pickled Onions Recipes

TURKEY SALISBURY STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Whisk 1 cup water, onion soup mix, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and black pepper together in a bowl. Strain mixture, reserving solids and broth. Pour 1/2 cup broth and the solids into a large bowl; mix turkey, bread crumbs, and egg into broth-solids mixture until thoroughly combined. Scoop 8 portions using 1/2 cup measure and form each into an oval patty; arrange on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Whisk remaining broth, mushroom soup, 1 can water, and gravy mix together in a saucepan until smooth; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
• Flip patties and pour gravy over each. Continue to cook until gravy has slightly thickened, about 10 more minutes.

TURKEY SALISBURY STEAKS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine 1/3 cup bread crumbs, onion, Worcestershire sauce, steak sauce, garlic and seasonings. Add turkey; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into four 1/2-in.-thick oval patties. Place remaining bread crumbs in a shallow bowl. Press patties into crumbs, patting to help coating adhere., In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1-1/2 teaspoons oil over medium heat. Add patties; cook 3-4 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 165°. Remove from pan., In same pan, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually whisk in broth, Worcestershire sauce and steak sauce. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in mushrooms. Return patties to pan. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 2-3 minutes or until heated through.

STEAK AND FRIES WITH PICKLED ONIONS

Steps:

• For the pickled red onions:
• In a small saucepan, bring the vinegar and sugar to a boil over medium-high heat. Put the red onion slices in a small glass bowl and pour the hot liquid over them. Set aside to steep and cool for at least 1 hour.
• For the steak and fries:
• Put the steaks in a resealable plastic bag and pack the blue cheese around them. Push as much air as you can from the bag and zip it closed. Refrigerate the steaks for 12 hours or overnight.
• In a large skillet set over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter and, when bubbling hot, sear the mushrooms until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. In a glass mixing bowl, stir together the vinegar, soy sauce, truffle oil, and ginger. Add the scallions and browned mushrooms. Stir to mix and coat the mushrooms with the marinade. Set aside at room temperature while you prepare the steaks.
• Remove the steaks from the bag and scrape off the blue cheese. Pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides of the steaks with the garlic powder and salt and pepper and set them aside to come to room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Heat a large, heavy, oven-safe skillet-I like an old cast-iron pan with character-over medium-high heat and, when hot, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. When the butter melts, add the smashed garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Stir these around a little, and then put the steaks in the pan. Cook the steaks for 3 minutes, and then turn over and cook for about 3 minutes on the other side, basting them with the melted butter as if you are in a race.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook for a few minutes longer, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in a thick part of a steak registers 130° to 135°F. I insist on medium-pink meat with a touch of gray on the inside, and then nicely caramelized but not crunchy on the outside.
• Let the meat rest for about 10 minutes. Slather more butter on the meat as it rests.
• Serve the steaks with the veggies and pickled red onions.
• Do Ahead
• The pickled onions and their brine will keep in a lidded container in the refrigerator for at least 2 weeks. (I prefer glass containers for pickles.)

TURKEY THIGHS WITH PICKLED CRANBERRIES AND ONIONS FOR TWO

Steps:

• Finely grate 1/2 teaspoon zest from the lemon and put it in a small bowl with the garlic and thyme. Halve the lemon and squeeze 1 tablespoon of the juice into the bowl. Mix everything into a paste.
• Pat the turkey thighs dry and season with salt and pepper. Smear turkey with the paste and place thighs on a plate. Refrigerate, uncovered, so the skin can dry out, for at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
• Meanwhile, squeeze the remaining juice from the lemon halves into a medium bowl. Add the onion, cranberries, lime juice, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt, tossing well. Let the mixture sit at room temperature, tossing occasionally, until the onions wilt and turn pink, 1 hour. Cover and refrigerate until serving. (These can be made up to 3 days in advance.)
• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Put turkey thighs on a baking pan and dot with butter. Roast the thighs for 40 to 50 minutes, until the skin is crisp, the meat is cooked through and the juices run clear. (No need to rest here.)
• Serve turkey with a little of the cranberries and pickles on top, with herbs scattered over everything.
