Once you make this turkey - It will be a standard on the table! The Italian Sausage stuffing is so good... Ingredients:
1/2 lb roasted chestnuts, finely chopped |
1/2 lb stuffed olives |
1 1/2 lbs italian sausage, bulk |
1 1/2 ounces mushrooms, diced |
12 lbs turkey |
5 slices pancetta |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, ground |
1/4 cup olive oil, extra virgin |
1 tablespoon flour, all-purpose |
Directions:
1. Mix chestnuts, olives, sausage meat and mushrooms. Stuff Turkey with this mixture and sew closed. Place the turkey in a roasting pan with the breast up.
2. Lay pancetta strips across the breast. Season with salt and pepper and cover with olive oil. Roast in a slow oven, 300 F until tender (cook according to turkey directions).
