ROAST TURKEY, ASPARAGUS AND WILD RICE CASSEROLE



Roast Turkey, Asparagus and Wild Rice Casserole image

Not your average casserole. Roasted asparagus, a sherry cream sauce with wild rice, roasted almonds and toasted bread crumbs make this a dish to entertain with or just a big family dinner. This served in individual serving dishes is wonderful or a dish made for two to serve for a very elegant dinner. You can always switch this up by use leftover chicken and even broccoli or green beans if you are not a fan of asparagus.

Provided by SarasotaCook

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups turkey, leftovers is perfect for this, you can substitute chicken for this as well (shredded or chopped)
2 1/2 cups milk
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 cup sherry wine
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped fine
salt and pepper
1 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 lb asparagus, roasted (just remove the tough ends and cut in 3-inch pieces)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
5 1/2 ounces wild rice, already cooked (1 box Uncle Bens or similar)
1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Rice -- Prepare the wild rice accordingly to directions and set to the side. You can make the quick cooking, original anything you want, even white and wild rice mix. I just like the wild rice flavor for this. But please you can use what you enjoy best.
  • Asparagus -- Roast the asparagus (broccoli or green beans if you are not using asparagus), as the rice cooks. On a cookie sheet covered with foil or parchment or even on a grill or grill pan, drizzle the asparagus with olive oil, salt and pepper and roast at 400 for about 7-10 minutes or grill for 5 just until 1/2 way done. Remove and cool.
  • The Main Part -- In a medium pot, melt the butter on medium heat and stir in the flour to make a roux. Slowly add in the milk and bring to a medium low boil until the sauce thickens. Then stir in the turkey and sherry and mix until combined and heated through. Add a little salt and pepper to your taste and the fresh parsley.
  • In a large casserole dished sprayed with pam or greased add the rice, then top with the turkey and cream sauce, asparagus (or other vegetable), positioned through the dish and top with bread crumbs and almonds. Cover with foil and bake at 375 for about 25 minutes until bubbly. The last 10 minutes I remove the foil so the bread crumbs can brown. You can also put under the broiler to get it nice and brown the last few minutes if you prefer that.
  • As I mentioned, individual serving dishes make a great presentation but it can just as easily be done in a large casserole dish as well. ENJOY!

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h10m

Yield Serves six

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 teaspoon ground allspice
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1 medium onion, chopped
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 cup basmati rice, rinsed in several changes of water
2 1/2 cups chicken or turkey stock
Salt to taste
3 garlic cloves
2 cups shredded turkey
2 cups drained yogurt or thick Greek-style yogurt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup crushed or finely chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Mix together the allspice, cinnamon and pepper, and divide into two equal portions (1 teaspoon each). Set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a heavy 2- or 3-quart saucepan. Add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Add the rice and 1 teaspoon of the spice mixture, and stir until the grains begin to crackle. Add 2 cups chicken stock and salt to taste (1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon). Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer 15 minutes until the liquid has been absorbed by the rice. Remove the lid, place a kitchen towel over the pot and then return the lid. Allow to sit undisturbed for 10 minutes.
  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil a 2-quart baking dish. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet. Add the garlic. In a few seconds, as soon as it begins to smell fragrant, add the remaining spices and the turkey. Stir together for about a minute until the turkey is coated with the mixture. Remove from the heat. Season to taste with salt.
  • Spread the rice in the casserole in an even layer. Top with the turkey. Douse with the remaining stock.
  • Place the garlic in a mortar and pestle with a pinch of salt, and puree. Stir into the yogurt, along with the lemon juice. Spread over the turkey in an even layer, making sure to completely cover the meat so that it doesn't dry out in the oven. Sprinkle on the nuts. Place in the oven, and bake 15 to 20 minutes, just until warmed through. Do not allow the yogurt to bubble. Serve hot or warm.

TURKEY AND BROWN RICE CASSEROLE



Turkey and Brown Rice Casserole image

This recipe tastes rich, but has very little fat. *After reading Annacia's review I realized, she is right and wanted to mention that if using chicken or all white meat turkey, chicken broth would be the best choice. When I use beef broth, I use Imagine Organic Beef Broth, which has a mild, more subtle taste than other beef broths and I always use dark and light turkey meat.*

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice. This will help the rice hold its shape and prevent it from becoming mushy in the casserole.
  • Don't overcook the turkey. Overcooked turkey will be dry and tough. Cook it just until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and color to the casserole. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, and peas.
  • Use a creamy sauce. This will help to bind the ingredients together and make the casserole more flavorful. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own using milk, flour, and butter.
  • Top the casserole with cheese. This will add a golden brown crust and make the casserole even more delicious.
