Turkey Tonnato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place slivers of garlic on the inside of the turkey breast and roll into neat package, tie with kitchen twine. Rub olive oil all over the roast and season with salt and pepper. If turkey breast was purchased tied, make small slits on the outside of the roast and insert the slivered garlic into the slits.
• Put the onion, celery, and chopped garlic in roasting pan with 1/2 cup of the stock. Lay seasoned turkey breast roll on top. Lightly tent pan with foil. Add more stock, as necessary, to keep vegetables from burning. Roast for about 45 minutes, until internal temperature registers 160 degrees F.
• Remove and let cool in pan. When turkey is room temperature, wrap well in plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to 2 days. Discard the onion, celery, and garlic.
• To make the sauce: Put the tuna, anchovies, 2 tablespoons of parsley, olive oil, and lemon juice in blender. Using short pulses, puree the mixture. Scrape the sides down frequently and stir to ensure even blending. When smooth, add the mayonnaise, capers, and white pepper and blend. Add the cream, a little at a time until you have desired texture and flavor. Additional white pepper, lemon, or anchovy may be added at this point, if desired. The sauce may be prepared up to 2 days in advance and refrigerated.
• To serve, arrange the selection of greens, fennel, and corn on platter. Drizzle lightly with olive oil, season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon. Slice turkey thinly, about 1/8-inch thick, and arrange on top of the greens. Drizzle with the sauce. Garnish with minced parsley and olives.

Steps:

• Put the mayo, most of the capers, 1 whole anchovy, the tuna and most of the lemon juice into a food processor. Whizz until the tuna is completely mixed into the mayo. Season with pepper first, then taste, and add salt and more lemon juice, if you need to. If your sauce seems a bit thick, whizz in a drop of water. Can be made up to a day ahead.
• Spread the turkey and rocket over a large serving plate, then spoon over the dressing and scatter with the remaining capers and sliced anchovy. Serve straight away with crusty bread.

Steps:

• Preheat oven 375 degrees F.

Remove from oven and let cool in the baking pan for 10 minutes. Slice into 1/2-inch slices, on an angle. Allow to sit in baking pan with juices as you make sauce.
• In the bowl of a food processor add the tuna, anchovy, lemon juice and capers. Puree until creamy, about 1 minute. Pour the tuna mixture into a bowl and stir in the mayonnaise.

• Put the drained tuna and capers into the container of a food processor or electric blender and blend. Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, anchovies and broth. Blend thoroughly.
• Spoon about a quarter cup of the sauce into a serving dish and smooth it over. Arrange a quarter of the turkey slices, slightly overlapping, over the sauce. Spoon another layer of sauce on top.

Cool turkey in broth 30 minutes (internal temperature will rise to 170°F).
• Purée tuna, anchovies, mayonnaise, oil, lemon juice, and water in a blender until very smooth.
• Transfer turkey to a cutting board, then bring remaining poaching liquid to a boil.
• Add half of beans and cook, uncovered, until crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a colander and refresh under cold water. Cook remaining beans and refresh in same way. Add potatoes to broth in pot and simmer until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain potatoes, reserving broth for another use.
