Anyone have a really good ground turkey recipe?

I made this last week, and they were the so yummy...





***Thanksgiving Tonight Meatballs***





1 pound whole-wheat, whole-grain or semolina spaghetti


Salt


1 cup dry stuffing (recommended: Pepperidge Farm)


3 cups turkey or chicken stock


1 pound ground turkey


Freshly ground black pepper


1 medium Golden Delicious apple, peeled, cored and finely chopped


1 teaspoon lemon juice


2 celery ribs from the heart, finely chopped


1 small onion or 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped


1 tablespoon poultry seasoning


1 egg


Extra-virgin olive oil, for liberal drizzling


1/2 pound crimini mushrooms, thinly sliced


A few sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped and chopped


2 tablespoons butter


2 tablespoons all-purpose flour


1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce


1/2 cup cream or half-and-half


1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, a couple of handfuls


A couple handfuls flat-leaf parsley, chopped





Directions


Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.





Bring water to a boil in large pot for pasta. When the water boils wait until meatballs go into oven. When meatballs have been in oven 4 to 5 minutes, season water with salt, add spaghetti and cook to al dente. Drain pasta and keep warm.





Soak stuffing with about 1 cup stock in small bowl until softened, a couple of minutes.





Place turkey in mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add apple, lemon juice, celery, onion, poultry seasoning, egg and stuffing and mix until just combined. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Form meat mixture into 16 (2-inch) balls, drizzle with some olive oil and roast until cooked through, firm and golden, about 12 minutes.





While meatballs roast, heat a couple of tablespoons olive oil in large skillet, add mushrooms and thyme and cook over medium-high heat until tender and season with salt and pepper. Make a well in the center of the pan, add the butter, and when melted, whisk in the flour. Cook for 1 minute then whisk in about 2 cups stock and Worcestershire sauce. Reduce heat to low and cook for a few minutes to thicken the sauce, then stir in cream.





Toss pasta in a large serving bowl with the meatballs, sauce and cheese. Garnish with parsley and serve.Anyone have a really good ground turkey recipe?
I love sausage, and I make my own with ground turkey (I occasionally use ground pork as well). This is my recipe:





For every 1 pound of turkey, you need:


3/4 tsp sea salt or table salt


1/4 tsp ground black pepper


1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes


1 tsp ground or rubbed sage





(If you don't like a lot of spice, you can omit the red pepper flakes.)


In a medium bowl, combine the turkey and spices. Mix with hands until the spices are evenly distributed. Form into patties and cook over medium to medium-high heat until cooked through, turning once.Anyone have a really good ground turkey recipe?

turkey chili





* 30 ml olive oil


* 1 onion, chopped


* 5 cloves garlic, minced


* 2 small green bell peppers, seeded and chopped


* 1 habanero pepper, seeded and chopped

1. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, green peppers and habanero pepper; cook and stir until the onion is transparent. Push these to one side of the pot, and crumble in the ground turkey. Cover, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the meat is no longer pink. Stir everything together so the garlic doesn't burn.


2. Season with chili powder, red pepper flakes, paprika, cumin, oregano, pepper, hot cocoa mix and seasoned salt. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke, diced tomatoes with green chilies, tomato sauce and kidney beans. Crack open a beer, and pour in about 1/3. Drink or discard the rest. Partially cover the pan, and simmer over medium heat for about 50 minutes, stirring occasionally.


3. Mix in the corn and hot pepper sauce, and simmer for about 10 more minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
