1,5 hIngredients
- 1 kg (2.2 lb) boneless turkey breast
- 300 g (¾ lb) ground turkey or other poultry
- 125 ml (½ cup) whole almonds
- 2 Cortland apples, cut into 1 cm cubes
- 125 ml (½ cup) brown sugar
- 60 ml (4 tablespoons) butter
- 250 ml (1 cup) homemade or commercial chicken broth
- 250 ml (1 cup) 15% country-style cream
- 125 ml (½ cup) honey
- 5 ml (1 teaspoon) nutmeg
- 5 ml (1 teaspoon) cinnamon
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
- Blanch the apples in the butter and brown sugar, then chill in the fridge for 10 minutes.
- Combine ground meat, apples, salt and pepper.
- Make a full-length incision in the center of the breast, without piercing the flesh on either side.
- Arrange the whole almonds to cover as much of the surface as possible.
- Fill the breast with the apple mixture, packing as much as possible.
- Close tightly, season with salt and pepper, then place on a buttered dish.
- Cover and bake in a hot oven at 180°C (350°F) for 1? hours. Time may vary according to the weight of the brisket; allow approximately 30-35 minutes per pound. Remove cover and finish baking at 220°C (425°F) for 15 minutes.
- For the sauce, combine remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Continue over medium-high heat for about 10 minutes. The sauce should coat the back of a spoon. Slice turkey and top with sauce.
