Best 3 Roasted Turkey With Avocado Bacon Balsamic Onion Marmalade And Mayonnaise Recipes

'WICHCRAFT'S ROASTED TURKEY, AVOCADO, BACON, ONION RELISH, & AïOLI ON CIABATTA

Steps:

• Make onion relish:
• In heavy medium pot, combine onions and enough water to cover and bring to boil, then strain. Return onions to pot and add sugar, red wine vinegar, and balsamic vinegar. Place over moderate heat and bring to simmer. Reduce heat to low, and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until onions are completely tender and have no bite left, about one and a half hours. (The liquid should be syrupy and coat the onions.) Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
• Make aïoli:
• In food processor or blender, purée yolk, garlic, mustard, and vinegar until smooth and creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Combine oils, then, with motor running, slowly drizzle into processor until completely emulsified, about 2 minutes. (If aïoli gets too thick, add a small amount of warm water, 1 teaspoon at a time.) Sprinkle in salt, pepper, and pepperoncini, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Cook bacon:
• In large, heavy skillet over moderate heat, cook 6 slices bacon, turning occasionally, until crisp, then transfer with tongs to paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining 6 slices. Set aside.
• Assemble sandwiches:
• Slice each ciabatta in half and place on large baking sheet. Place 4 ounces turkey on each of four ciabatta bottoms, then spread onion relish over meat. Lay 3 slices bacon on each of 4 ciabatta tops. Transfer baking sheet to oven and toast until bacon is crispy and edges of ciabatta turn light golden brown, about 5 minutes (the turkey does not have to get hot). Remove from oven and transfer bacon to other side of ciabatta, laying on top of onion relish. Divide avocado slices between sandwiches, placing on top of bacon. Spread aïoli evenly across each ciabatta top, close sandwiches, slice each in half, and serve.

JUICY MAYO ROASTED TURKEY

Steps:

• Adjust a rack in the lowest position and preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Set a roasting rack in a large roasting pan.
• Stir together the mayonnaise, paprika, dried parsley, garlic powder, dried thyme, ground sage, hot sauce, 2 tablespoons salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• Remove any turkey parts from the neck and breast cavities and reserve for other uses if desired. Dry the bird well with paper towels, inside and out. Rub the mayonnaise mixture all over the turkey, including the cavity, trying to make it as smooth as possible, especially on the breast so it browns evenly. Stuff the cavity with the onion, garlic, herb sprigs and bay leaves.
• Set the bird breast-side up on the prepared roasting rack. Tent the bird with foil.
• Roast the turkey for 2 hours. Remove the foil and increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Add a cup of water to the bottom of the pan so that the drippings don't burn and continue to roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees F in the thigh, 30 to 45 minutes. You can strain the pan drippings and serve them on the side or reserve and blend them into your gravy for extra flavor.
• Remove the turkey from the oven and let rest about 20 minutes then carve and serve.

MAYONNAISE ROASTED TURKEY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450-degrees F.
• Lay turkey in a roasting pan.
• Remove leaves from herbs stems. Add sage, thyme, rosemary, and oregano to mayonnaise; combine well. Rub mayonnaise/herb mixture all over outside and interior of bird.
• Liberally salt, and pepper turkey. Add the celery, and onion, inside and out, and tuck the butter in the cavity.
• Roast turkey in 450-degrees F oven for 30 minutes. Then turn the oven down to 350-degrees F, and insert the meat thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh, being careful not to touch bone. Continue roasting, uncovered, until internal thermometer reaches 165-degrees F. Cover legs with foil partway through roasting if desired. Depending on size of turkey, total cook time will be around 1½-2 hours. Once the thermometer reaches 165-degrees F in the thigh, check the internal temperature of the thickest part of the breast to make sure it reads at least 165-degrees F as well.
• Remove from oven. Cover loosely with foil and let rest for at least 20-30 minutes (depending on size) before carving.
• Remember to reserve turkey drippings and juices for gravy.
