Orange Turkey with Vegetables
This recipe is from "Chicken and Turkey for Today" by WatkinsWatkins. The booklet cookbook is only $3.95 and has loads of great recipes in it, including this one:
- 2 medium zucchini or yellow summer squash
- 2 red, yellow or green bell peppers
- 1 lb turkey tenderloin
- 1 Tbsp Watkins Onion Liquid Spice
- 1 tsp Watkins Mediterranean herb Rub
- Freshly ground Watkins Sea Salt to Taste
- 2 Tbsp all-fruit orange marmalade
- 2 Tbsp Watkins Onion Mustard
Preheat broiler. Cut zucchini and peppers lengthwise into long wedge; place on broiler pan. Cut tenderloin into piece about 1/2 inch thick. Place on broiler pan. Brush all with Liquid Spice. Sprinkle herb rub and salt over vegetable. Broil about 5 inches from heat source for 5-8 minutes, watching carefully to prevent scorching. In small saucepan, melt marmalade along with mustard. Turn the turkey and vegetables; brush turkey lightly with marmalade mixture. Broil for 2 minutes; turn tureky again and brush with marmalade mixture. Broil 2 mintues more or until cook through. Makes 4 servings. (well, according to THEIR recipe, anyway...)
The entire recipe is:
- 140 g protein (20 blocks protein)
- 40 g carbs (less 8 g dietary fiber, = 32 g carbs net or 3.5 blocks)
- 28 g fat (or 9.3 blocks fat)
Serve with other veggies on the side, or steamed barley prepared like couscous, with a flavored broth (chicken or vegetable).
VEGETARIANS:
Anything I do to meat, I also do to the vegetarian meat analogues, and I have used Smoked Turkey Style for this recipe quite successfully. Tofu would probably work well too!
