Festive Christmas flavors in a non-traditional turkey format!
Ingredients:
  • Pinch of saffron threads
  • 750ml chicken stock
  • 36.40 gm olive oil
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 500g turkey breast fillet (see note), cut into strips
  • 300g rice
  • 1 cinnamon quill
  • 50g dried cranberry
  • 82.50 ml unsalted shelled pistachios, roughly chopped
  • 62.50 ml chopped coriander leaves
Instructions:
  • Infuse the saffron in the hot chicken stock and set it aside for later use.
  • In a large deep frypan, warm the oil over low heat. Sauté the onion, garlic, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of pepper for 5 minutes until the onion is soft. Increase heat to high, add the turkey, and stir for 2-3 minutes until golden. Mix in the rice until coated, then add the cinnamon quill and stock. Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer on low heat for 15 minutes until the rice is tender.
  • Once the pan is off the heat, gently fold in cranberries, pistachios, and coriander. Let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and it is ready to be served.
