A spicy marinade for turkey breast. Madras curry powder is a hot version. The turkey breast is NOT a formed roast, but a whole, boned breast with skin on. VARIATION: use marinade on whole chicken and grill chicken on spit. Cooking time includes 8 hours marinating time. Serve hot, or refrigerate and slice for sandwiches or salads.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup dry sherry
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon madras curry powder
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 garlic clove, peeled and minced
1 shallot, peeled and minced
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
4 1/2 lbs boneless turkey breast (skin on)
Directions:
1. Put the peanut butter, sherry, broth, curry powder and soy sauce in a bowl and mix until smooth. Stir in the garlic, shallot and pepper.
2. Put the turkey into a gallon plastic zipper bag and pour in the marinade. Close the bag and turn to coat the turkey. Refrigerate 6-8 hours.
3. Pre-heat oven to 325°F.
4. Remove the turkey from the bag and place on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast about 30 to 35 minutes per pound. Baste often with marinade.
5. Let the turkey rest 10 minutes before carving. Serve warm or cold.
