[CnD] "Turkey Breast of Wonder"

2015-12-02 Thread Susie Stageberg via Cookinginthedark
Here is a recipe my daughter found somewhere on line. I have made it once;
the flavor is wonderful, but if you follow the timing directions you end up
with turkey that won't slice, but falls apart into very small pieces. I
don't' think you need to go all the way to 180 degrees.

 

Here is the recipe as written:

 

"Ingredients
1 (5-6 pound) turkey breast
1/2 C orange juice (you could also substitute chicken broth)
1 (14 ounce) can whole cranberry sauce
1 (1 ounce) package Lipton Onion Soup Mix
salt and pepper

Make sure your turkey is completely thawed. I let mine hang out in the
fridge for a couple of days after I purchase it frozen. Set it on a pan, so
you don't have juices running all over when you open up the bag. Cut a hole
in the top of the bag and remove the packaging. Some turkey breasts come
with a gravy pouch inside, be sure to remove it if yours happens to come
with one. 
Place the old bird in the crock pot. 
Pour yourself 1/2 cup of orange juice. Add one can whole berry Cranberry
sauce and one package Lipton Onion Soup mix. 
Mix the ingredients together and pour them over the top of the bird. 
Sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper over the top. Cover the crock pot and cook
on low for 8-9 hours,
or until a meat thermometer stuck into the center of the bird reads 180
degrees. You can see I got mine a bit past 180. Don't like, turn me into the
poultry police or anything, ok? It still turned out wonderful, juicy and
moist."

 

The c combination of flavors in the sauce is very good, though.

According to the information I used to pass the food handler's license in 
2009, turkey is safe at an internal temperature of 165, although it may have 
changed since then, but probably not by much.  I would think that 180 is far 
too high.

Re: [CnD] Crock pot turkey breast

2015-12-02 Thread Penny Reeder via Cookinginthedark
Hi Mary, I cook turkey breasts in my crock pot all year round. That
way we have great sandwhich filling available for the week. I have
done it several ways, and there are recipes all over the internet as
well.

Sometimes I make a "rack" of sliced onion and celery stalks that
become the bottom layer in the crock pot, then, salt and pepper the
turkey, add rosemary and sage if you like or a halved lemon, cover the
turkey, top and bottom, with olive oil, salt and pepper liberally and
add a cup -- or a little less -- of white wine, water, or broth to the
crock. Then, I cook on high for an hour and low for 3-4 more.

I have also done essentially the same thing but, rather than
slathering on the olive oil, I melt a half stick of butter in the
microwave, add a quarter to a third of a cup of soy sauce, pour over
the turkey and then rinse out the measuring cup with water adding that
to the crock.

Enjoy!
Penny

I have a question about the measurements in this recipe. When it comes to
the water is it 1 tablespoon or teaspoon because how I hear it on my iPhone
it sounds like one ton of water! LOL and the others I will say the same I
feel silly asking this but please forgive me. Thank you in advance and as
for the cinnamon is it 1 tablespoon or teaspoon, I know cinnamon goes a long
way. As well
