Slow-cooked Turkey With Berry Compote
Ingredients
- salt - 1 teaspoon
- garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon
- dried thyme - 1/2 teaspoon
- pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
- boneless turkey breast halves - 2 (2 pounds each)
- water - 1/3 cup
- For the compote
- medium apples, peeled and finely chopped - 2
- fresh raspberries - 2 cups
- fresh blueberries - 2 cups
- white grape juice - 1 cup
- crushed red pepper flakes - 1/4 teaspoon
- ground ginger - 1/4 teaspoon
Instructions
- Mix salt, garlic powder, thyme and pepper; rub over turkey breasts. Place in a 5- or 6-qt. slow cooker. Pour water around turkey.
- Cook, covered, on low 3-4 hours (a thermometer inserted in turkey should read at least 165°).
- Remove turkey from slow cooker; tent with foil. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
- Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine compote ingredients.
- Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened and apples are tender, 15-20 minutes. Serve turkey with compote.
I know it may seem difficult to find the some of the fruits, so you can use frozen fruit when fresh is out of season. So worry not if you think you can’t make this dish during other seasons.
Happy slow cooking!
