Turkey Club Salad With Avocado Dressing Recipes

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.

TURKEY CLUB SALAD WITH AVOCADO DRESSING

Steps:

• Crisp the bacon in the microwave according to package directions. Remove it from the microwave and chop it. Of course, any bacon or turkey bacon that you have on hand may be substituted. These prerendered bacon products simply allow you to keep more heat out of the kitchen by giving you the option of a low-maintenance microwave preparation.
• Chop the romaine lettuce and arrange on a large platter. Arrange a bed of pea shoots or sprouts on top of the lettuce, then arrange the tomatoes and red onion on top of that. Season the salad vegetables with salt and pepper, to your taste. Scatter the chopped bacon onto the salad.
• Remove the rotisserie turkey from the bone with a sharp carving knife. Slice the rotisserie breast meat on an angle into strips. For thick-cut turkey from the deli, julienne the meat into 1/2-inch strips. Arrange the sliced turkey down the center of the salad platter.
• Cut all around the ripe avocados down to the pit. Twist and separate the halved fruit. Remove the pit with a spoon, then scoop the flesh with a spoon into the bowl of a food processor. Add the lemon zest and juice to the food processor. Chop the garlic on a cutting board and mash with 1 teaspoon salt to make a paste. Add the garlic paste to the food processor. Add the red wine vinegar. Place a lid on the food processor and turn it on. While the blade is spinning, stream in EVOO and add hot sauce. Stop the processor, taste the dressing, and adjust the seasonings. Pour the dressing back and forth over the platter evenly when you are ready to serve this simple and so-cool salad meal.

Steps:

• For the grilled seasonal salad: Prepare a grill for high heat.
• Brush the corn, cabbage and green onions with vegetable oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the corn, cabbage, green onions and poblanos until charred and blistering, 4 to 5 minutes a side for the corn and onions, 10 minutes for the poblanos (turning throughout) and 10 to 15 minutes a side for the cabbage. Using a grill basket or by skewering, grill the strawberries for 1 to 2 minutes per side. Set the vegetables and strawberries aside to cool.
• For the avocado dressing: In the meantime, scoop the avocado flesh into the bowl of a food processor. Add the olive oil, vinegar, cilantro, lime zest and juice, garlic and some salt and pepper and process until smooth. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
• When cool, rough-chop the cabbage. Remove the skins, seeds and ribs from the poblanos and cut into thin strips. Slice the green onions. Next, cut the corn kernels from the cobs over a towel to capture the kernels easily. Place all the veggies and the strawberries into a large bowl. Pour the avocado dressing over top and toss to coat. Season again with salt and pepper if necessary.

Cut each sandwich in half to serve.
