I offer a simple recipe for cooking turkey meat in the sleeve. The meat is baked together with vegetables, it turns out very juicy, soft and aromatic. The advantage is that the side dish and meat are cooked at the same time.

Turkey baked in a sleeve with potatoes

Turkey baked with potatoes in the sleeve is a “two-in-one” dish, that is, here you immediately get a hot meat dish and a side dish.
As a result, both potatoes and turkey meat will be juicy and aromatic. Any part of the turkey will work for this dish. Ingredients:

• Turkey meat – 600 g.
• Potatoes – 500 g.
• Apple – 1 pc.
• Vegetable oil – 1 l.
• Garlic – 2 cloves.
• Salt and spices.

Cooking process:

1. Wash the pieces of turkey meat, wipe with a napkin, rub them with salt, spices and vegetable oil. Use any spices to suit your taste: ground black pepper, curry, turmeric, herbes de Provence or a ready-made turkey seasoning mixture will do. Leave the meat to marinate for 20-40 minutes.
2. Peel the potatoes, wash and cut into large slices.
3. Peel and core the apple and cut into thin slices.
4. Peel and wash the garlic; no need to chop.
5. Place all ingredients in a baking sleeve, making sure that they are distributed evenly. You cannot allow a situation in which the potatoes are baked at one end of the sleeve and the turkey at the other. The ingredients should mix and soak in the juice and aroma of each other.
6. Place the pan with turkey and potatoes in an oven heated to 200 degrees. Bake for 1.5 hours. 10-15 minutes before the end, you can remove the dish from the oven, cut the sleeve and let the top bake.

When serving, turkey and potatoes can be decorated with fresh vegetables or herbs.

Soft and juicy turkey baked whole in the oven with apples and nuts

For tender, melting meat, you can add nuts, apples and aromatic spices.

Products:

• turkey meat - half a kilogram;
• sour cream – 100 gr.;
• onion - 2 pcs.;
• sweet and sour apple – 5-6 pcs.;
• walnuts – 500 gr.;
• sugar - 100 gr.;
• salt - 100 gr.;
• spices.

Preparation:

1. First of all, let's make the marinade. Mix salt, sugar and spices thoroughly in the water.
2. Place the thawed carcass on a plate and pour over the pre-prepared marinade. Leave for 12 hours. This will add juiciness and flavor to the turkey.
3. The next step is to prepare the apple filling in nut sauce. Put butter in a heated frying pan, add sugar and fry the apples, previously cut into small slices. Sprinkle black pepper, cloves and cinnamon on top. Hot spices will add a unique Persian aroma to the meat.
4. Fry the onion until golden brown, mix with chopped nuts and sauce. The thickness of the mixture should resemble minced meat. Take a fried apple slice and a little prepared mixture, and then make small cutlets. We stuff the insides of the turkey with these “cutlets”. Mix nut sauce and sour cream into the remaining mixture, grate the outside of the skin and place on a baking sheet. Potatoes cut into slices are a wonderful side dish.
5. Bake at a temperature of 180 C, 2.5 -3 hours. To determine readiness, make several cuts; as soon as juice begins to come out of the carcass, the meat is completely ready.
