ADOBO CHICKEN WRAP

Steps:

• Spread mayo onto tortilla.
• Top with remaining ingredients; roll up.

TURKEY BACON MELT SANDWICH

Steps:

• Heat broiler.
• Combine mayonnaise and adobo sauce in bowl. Evenly spread on 1 side of each toast slice.
• Layer 4 slices toast, spread-side up, with 1/4 turkey and 2 slices tomato each; sprinkle with black pepper. Top each with 2 slices bacon and 2 slices cheese.
• Place sandwiches onto ungreased baking sheet. Broil 5 to 6 inches from heat 1-2 minutes or until cheese begins to melt.
• Top sandwiches with lettuce leaves and remaining toast slices, spread-side down.

FAMOUS CHICKEN ADOBO

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken pieces until golden brown on both sides, then remove. Stir in the onion and garlic; cook until they soften and brown, about 6 minutes.
• Pour in vinegar and soy sauce, and season with garlic powder, black pepper, and bay leaf. Add the browned chicken, increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the chicken is tender and cooked through, 35 to 40 minutes.

TURKEY WRAPS

Steps:

• Mix together the cream cheese and Dijon mustard until smooth. Spread each tortilla with about 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture, spreading to within 1/4 inch of the edge of the tortillas.
• Arrange about 1/4 cup of shredded lettuce on each tortilla, and press the lettuce down into the cream cheese mixture. Place 2 turkey slices per tortilla over the lettuce, and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of shredded Swiss cheese. Top each tortilla evenly with tomato, avocado slices, and crumbled bacon.
• Roll each tortilla up tightly, and cut in half across the middle with a slightly diagonal cut.

HOT PASTRAMI WRAP

Steps:

• Using the first 7 ingredients prepare the coleslaw. Set aside.
• Make 6 portions of the pastrami and cook on medium heat for about 2 minute each side.
• Place 2 slices of cheese on each pile and cook a little longer to melt cheese.
• Warm the tortillas, wrapped in a damp dishtowel for about 30 seconds in the microwave.
• Assemble the wraps: put pastrami and cheese in the middle of tortilla, add coleslaw and roll up, sealing the sides as you go.
• Cut on an angle and enjoy.
• You may have some coleslaw mixture left over, it is very good on it's own too.
• To make this quicker, use a package of pre-shredded coleslaw and purchased dressing; just add the adobo sauce.

ADOBO MARINATED TURKEY (PAVO ADOBADO)

Steps:

• Remove the stems and seeds from the dried chiles and transfer them to a saucepan. Cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 10 minutes. Peel the garlic and add to a separate saucepan. Drizzle garlic with a little oil and heat to medium low. Saute garlic for 6-8 minutes and set aside.
• While peppers are cooling, gather your ingredients. In the blender, add the achiote, juice, cider vinegar, oil, oregano, cumin and pepper. Using a slotted spoon, add the chiles in water and the garlic. Season to taste with salt. Blend on high until smooth. If sauce is too thick, add a little more juice or water. Strain through a wire mesh strainer into a bowl, set aside.
• Wash off turkey with cool water and pat dry. Clean out the inside of turkey. Season the inside with salt and pepper. Add the lemon, onion, half of butter and fresh herbs. Use cooking twine to tie the legs together if you like.
• Carefully, place the turkey on rack inside of roasting pan. Pull the skin up in the breast area and spread the remaining butter directly onto turkey. Put the skin back in place. Pour the adobo all over, using your hands to make sure it is coated evenly all over the surface of turkey. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate overnight.
• When ready to cook, remove the turkey from refrigerator at least one hour before. Add 4 cups of water to the bottom of the pan. Remove the plastic wrap from turkey and discard. Cover the turkey tightly with heavy foil paper. Transfer to oven and roast in a 350 degree preheated oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
• Remove the foil paper and continue roasting, basting as desired, until the internal temperature of breast reads 158-160. Inner part of thigh should be at least 175 degrees. Remove from the oven and tent loosely with foil. Let sit for 25 to 30 minutes before slicing. When ready, slice turkey. Pour the strained(warm) pan juices over the meat. Or save pan juices for gravy.
• All ovens will vary as far as the cooking times. If your turkey has a built in thermometer, start watching for it to pop up after 1 hour and 30 minutes. Keep your meat thermometer handy!

TURKEY ENCHILADAS ADOBO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Stack tortillas and wrap in foil. Warm in oven until heated through, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in enchilada sauce, 2 tablespoons cilantro, and chopped chiles. Simmer over medium heat 5 minutes to blend flavors, stirring often.
• While enchilada sauce simmers, mix turkey, 1/2 cup bell peppers, 2 tablespoons cilantro, and 1 teaspoon adobo sauce in small bowl. Unwrap tortillas and arrange in single layer on work surface. Fill each tortilla with about 1/4 cup turkey mixture and roll up.
• Preheat broiler. Place enchiladas, seam side down, in simmering sauce, spooning some sauce over each. Remove from heat. Sprinkle with cheese and remaining 1/4 cup bell peppers. Place skillet in broiler and cook until enchiladas are heated through and cheese is melted, about 4 minutes.
• Sprinkle enchiladas with remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro and serve.

ADOBO TURKEY WITH RED-CHILE GRAVY

Steps:

• Make adobo:
• Slit chiles lengthwise, then stem and seed. Heat a large heavy skillet (not nonstick) over medium heat until hot, then toast chiles in batches, opening them flat, turning and pressing with tongs, until more pliable and slightly changed in color, about 30 seconds per batch.
• Transfer to a bowl and cover chiles with boiling-hot water, then soak until softened, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toast spices in a small heavy skillet over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
• Drain chiles, discarding liquid, and purée in a blender with spices, garlic, herbs, vinegar, water, oil, and 2 teaspoon salt until very smooth, about 1 minute. Set aside 1/2 cup adobo for gravy.
• Marinate turkey:
• Rinse turkey inside and out and pat dry. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons salt evenly in turkey cavities and all over skin, then rub remaining adobo (a scant 3/4 cup) all over turkey, including cavities. Fold neck skin under body, then tuck wing tips under breast and tie drumsticks together with string. Transfer to rack in roasting pan and marinate, covered with plastic wrap and chilled, at least 8 hours and up to 24.
• Roast turkey:
• Let turkey stand, covered, at room temperature 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in lower third.
• Add 1 cup water to pan and roast turkey 1 hour.
• Brush turkey with oil and add remaining cup water, then tent loosely with foil and rotate pan. Roast (if bottom of pan becomes dry, add 1/2 cup more water) until an instant-read thermometer inserted into fleshy part of each thigh (test both; close to but not touching bone) registers 170°F, 1 3/4 to 2 3/4 hours more (total roasting time: 2 3/4 to 3 3/4 hours).
• Carefully tilt turkey so juices from inside large cavity run into pan. Transfer turkey to a platter and let stand, uncovered, 30 minutes (temperature of thigh meat will rise to 175 to 180°F).
• Make gravy while turkey stands:
• Straddle roasting pan across 2 burners, then add 1 cup turkey stock and boil over high heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 2 minutes. Strain pan juices through a fine-mesh sieve into 2-quart measure and skim off fat (or use a fat separator), reserving fat. Add enough turkey stock to liquid to bring total to 5 cups.
• Whisk together flour, 6 tablespoon reserved fat (if there is less, add melted butter), and reserved 1/2 cup adobo in a heavy medium saucepan, then cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, 3 minutes (mixture will be thick). Add pan juices and stock in a fast stream, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a boil, whisking, then simmer, whisking occasionally, until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Season with salt.
• Serve turkey with gravy.

HOT ADOBO TURKEY WRAP

Steps:

• Mix cole slaw with light mayo and adobo sauce, set aside.
• Heat non-stick pan and add turkey-the goal is to lightly grill it to bring out the flavor.
• If your pan is big enough, separate turkey into 6 piles and add cheese to each; if not. just do it in batches. Warm wraps in microwave and add turkey/cheese.
• Place some cole slaw on top, and roll up-or should I say wrap up? Cut in half and enjoy!
