Turkey Avocado Jalapeno Club Recipes

SOUTHWESTERN TURKEY CLUB

Steps:

• Working in two batches if necessary, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until brown and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes per side; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons rendered fat from skillet.
• Season turkey generously with salt and pepper. Add to skillet, and cook over medium heat until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes per side; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
• In a small bowl, mash avocado, lime juice, and chiles with a fork; season with salt and pepper.
• Spread avocado mixture on one side of each slice of toast. Layer turkey, bacon, tomato, and toast to form four triple-decker sandwiches. To serve, skewer with toothpicks; slice in half with a serrated knife.

JAMMIN' TURKEY CLUB

Steps:

• For the peach chutney: Combine the peaches, brown sugar, vinegar, pineapples, onions, bell peppers, garlic, cinnamon, red pepper flakes, salt, crystallized ginger and jalapenos in a large saucepan and cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until thickened and "jammy," about 45 minutes.
• For the turkey club: Fold the crepe in half to form a half-moon shape and place on a hot griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Spread 3 tablespoons chutney evenly over the surface and sprinkle with the mozzarella (save the remaining chutney for another use). Top with the turkey and bacon and allow to rest on the hot griddle until the cheese is melty and the ingredients warmed. Top with the greens and drizzle with the aioli. Pull up one corner of the crepe and fold over to cover half of the sandwich, then roll over one more time in the same direction to enclose all the ingredients and form a cone-shaped sandwich. Press down lightly and allow to rest for another minute or so on the griddle until lightly crisped and warm. Flip and crisp the reverse side. Serve warm.
• Stir together the mayonnaise and horseradish in a bowl.

TURKEY CLUB SALAD WITH AVOCADO DRESSING

Steps:

• Crisp the bacon in microwave according to package directions. Remove from microwave and chop. Of course, any bacon or turkey bacon which you have on hand may be substituted. These pre-rendered bacon products simply allow you to keep more heat out of the kitchen by giving you the option of a low-maintenance microwave preparation.
• Chop romaine lettuce and arrange on large platter. Arrange a bed of pea shoots or sprouts on top of the lettuce then arrange the tomatoes and chopped red onion on top of that. Season the salad vegetables with salt and pepper, to your taste. Scatter chopped bacon onto salad.
• Remove the rotisserie turkey from the bone with a sharp carving knife. Slice the rotisserie breast meat on an angle into strips. For thick cut turkey from the deli, julienne the meat into 1/2-inch strips. Arrange the sliced turkey down the center of the salad platter.
• Cut all around the ripe avocados down to the pit. Twist and separate the halved fruit. Remove the pit with a spoon, then scoop the flesh with a spoon into your food processor bowl. Add the zest and juice of 1 lemon to the food processor. Chop garlic on your board and mash with 1 teaspoon salt to paste the garlic. Add garlic paste and the red wine vinegar to the food processor. Place lid on the food processor and turn it on. While the blade is spinning, stream in extra-virgin olive oil and add hot sauce. Stop processor, taste dressing and adjust seasonings. Pour dressing back and forth over the platter evenly when you are ready to serve this simple and so-cool salad meal.

TURKEY-AVOCADO CLUBS

Steps:

• Toss the onion with the vinegar and 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Let stand 15 minutes, then drain. Meanwhile, cook the turkey bacon as the label directs until crisp.
• Mash the avocado with the yogurt in another small bowl until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• Lay 4 slices of bread on a cutting board and spread with half of the avocado-yogurt mixture. Top with the lettuce and tomato and season with salt and pepper. Add a layer of turkey breast, bacon, cucumber and red onion. Spread the remaining avocado mixture on the remaining 4 bread slices and place spread-side down on top of the sandwiches. Cut each sandwich in half to serve.
