Turkey And Rice Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Cook rice as directed on box. Refrigerate 10 minutes to cool.
• Meanwhile, cut thin slices from tops of tomatoes. Gently squeeze out and discard seeds. Using teaspoon, remove pulp from tomatoes, leaving 1/4-inch shell. Drain upside down on paper towels. Refrigerate until serving time.
• In medium bowl, mix rice, turkey, celery, bell pepper and onions. In small bowl, mix dressing ingredients. Pour dressing over salad; stir gently to coat. Cover; refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 45 minutes.
• Just before serving, spoon salad into tomato shells. If desired, garnish with additional chopped green onions.

Steps:

• Heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the rice and 1 teaspoon curry powder, then add 1 1/2 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and transfer to a large bowl. Let cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, whisk the lime juice, mango chutney, 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Season the turkey with salt, pepper and the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder on both sides. Toss with 1 tablespoon of the chutney dressing. Let marinate 10 minutes.
• Heat 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the turkey; cook until golden, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet and cook the remaining turkey. Chop the turkey into bite-size pieces.
• Toss the rice with the remaining chutney dressing, the cucumbers, shallot, kale, pomegranate seeds and mint. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the rice salad among bowls and top with the turkey. Serve with more mango chutney.

Steps:

• Pour boiling water over the noodles and allow to sit for 5 mins. Drain, rinse under cold water and put in a large bowl, along with the chilli, carrots, onion and herbs.
• To make the lime-chilli dressing, mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl or a screw-top jar.
• Heat a non-stick frying pan or wok over a high heat until extremely hot. Lightly coat with oil and fry the turkey until nicely browned, breaking into chunks as you go. Add the noodle mixture, pour the dressing over the salad and mix well.

Steps:

• Place cooked turkey meat, celery, green onions and red bell pepper in a blender or food processor. Finely chop using the pulse setting.
• Transfer the turkey mixture to a medium bowl. Mix in mayonnaise, prepared Dijon-style mustard, cider vinegar, white sugar and salt. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours, or overnight, before serving.

Steps:

• Combine leftover turkey leg, thigh, and breast meat in a stockpot over high heat; add chicken broth and onion. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cover. Simmer, flipping turkey pieces over halfway, until meat falls off the bone, about 1 hour.
• Transfer turkey pieces to a bowl and let cool until safe to handle.
• Meanwhile, bring broth to a boil and stir in rice. Season with black pepper, cayenne, and salt. Reduce heat to medium and let rice simmer until it starts to plump up, about 10 minutes.
• Pick turkey meat off the bone and chop into small pieces. Stir into the rice, adding more broth as needed. Cook over medium-low heat until rice reaches desired tenderness, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Smash green onions, red pepper, and cilantro together for the salsa. Taste and season turkey rice as desired, then scoop into serving bowls and top with salsa.

Steps:

• Bring 3 cups water, wild rice and 1/2 tsp salt to boil in heavy medium saucepan.

• Cool rice completely.
• Set aside.
• Combine cranberries and remaining 1 tbsp water in heavy small saucepan.
• Cook over medium-low heat until cranberries just begin to soften, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes.

• Divide salad among plates and serve.

Steps:

• Combine all salad ingredients except the lettuce leaves, yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon rind, and curry powder.
• Whisk together the yogurt, mayonnaise ( I use miracle whip for the extra tang but its not necessary), lemon rind and curry powder.
• Refrigerate ingredients in one container container, except dressing in another for flavours in dressing to blend. Also keep lettuce aside until just before assembling.

Steps:

• Put the wild rice in a mixing bowl, let cool and add the smoked poultry.
• Prepare the avocados and sprinkle with lemon juice to prevent discoloration. Add the cubes to the mixing bowl. Add the tomatoes, onion, vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper and parsley. Toss to blend and serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring 3 1/2 cups of the stock or water to boil. Add salt to taste and the wild rice. When the water returns to a boil, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 40 to 45 minutes until the rice is tender and has begun to splay. Taste the rice to make sure it's tender; if so, drain and transfer to a large bowl. Add the remaining salad ingredients, except the pomegranate seeds.
• While the rice is cooking, make the dressing. Whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, salt to taste, mustard and garlic. Whisk in the oils, taste and adjust seasonings. Toss with the warm rice and the remaining salad ingredients. Arrange the pomegranate seeds on top, and serve.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the rice, turkey, onions, celery and water chestnuts. Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, salt, pepper and dill; pour over salad and gently stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours., Coarsely chop 3/4 cup cashews. Just before serving, stir the grapes and chopped cashews into salad. Garnish with remaining cashews.
