SOUTHWESTERN TURKEY IN BRINE ( FUNKY BIRD)



Southwestern Turkey in Brine ( Funky Bird) image

This was a turkey recipe given by a friend who raved about it and it was the only turkey now cooked for their gatherings. It is from Emeril Lagasse. We have adopted it and is a must for Thanksgiving or is great any time of the year. Our son who doesn't like turkey loves this! It's flavor is fabulous

Time 1h45m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 cup fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup fresh orange juice
1 cup kosher salt
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup chopped yellow onion
2 oranges, halved
2 jalapenos, minced with seeds (I add 4-5)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano, preferable Mexican
1 (6 1/2 lb) whole turkey breast (or I have used a whole turkey)
vegetable oil
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano leaves
1 tablespoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • In a large non reactive container (we usually use a white trash bag--heavy duty or doubled sacked), combine lemon juice, orange juice, kosher salt, light brown sugar, yellow onions, oranges, jalapenos, cilantro, garlic, chili powder, ground cumin and oregano with 1 gallon water.
  • Stir, squeeze, or shake up to dissolve brine the sugar & salt.
  • Put the turkey under cold running water and rinse.
  • Add the turkey to the brine, cover and refrigerate, turning occasionally, for at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours.
  • Essence:.
  • Mix ingredients well and store in an airtight container or jar. Yields about 2/3 cup.
  • Preheat oven to 375°FF.
  • Remove the turkey from the brine and put it breast side up in a large heavy roasting pan and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Rub the turkey with vegetable oil.
  • Sprinkle all sides with 1- 3 tablespoons of Essence.
  • Roast until deep golden brown and an instant thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh reads 165°F., about 1 hour and 45 minutes for breast, and a whole turkey takes about 20 minutes per pound.
  • Transfer to a platter and let stand for about 15 minutes before carving.
