Steps:

  • Turkey Poppers: Are you looking for a different snack to serve during the endless round of football games? Do you have some wild turkey breast from this year's hunting season still in your freezer? Or do you possibly have some turkey from the regular holiday feast that you are looking to turn into creative leftovers? You need wild turkey breast, jalapeno or banana peppers, bacon, cream cheese and toothpicks. Cut a dozen jalapeno peppers into halves and thoroughly clean them out so you won't inflame the sinuses and senses of your guests. You can substitute banana peppers if you wish so you won't have the game interrupted by smoke coming from the nostrils. Marinate one wild turkey breast in Italian dressing for 24 hours. Cut the turkey meat into pieces that will easily fit inside the pepper halves. Spread cream cheese inside pepper halves and place turkey strips on top of the cream cheese20and secure with a toothpick. Wrap a bacon strip around the outside as additional insurance policy. Place the peppers on the barbeque grill (or broiler) until the bacon is done. Let them cool before serving. The cream cheese gets very hot. From Bill Hilts, Jr.

Tips:

  • For a crispy coating, make sure the turkey poppers are coated in breadcrumbs twice.
  • To prevent the poppers from sticking to the baking sheet, line it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Bake the poppers until they are golden brown and crispy, about 20 minutes.
  • Serve the poppers with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing, barbecue sauce, or honey mustard.
  • For a fun and festive appetizer, use cookie cutters to cut the turkey slices into fun shapes before wrapping them around the filling.

Conclusion:

Turkey poppers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients and can be customized to your liking. With a crispy coating and a flavorful filling, turkey poppers are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
