Turkey with Chili Crisp

Turkey with Chili Crisp

Always looking for more flavor in your turkey? Try rubbing Chili Crisp under the skin of your bird before putting it in the oven. You’ll get all the flavor you want as the salt and the chili work their way into the turkey. It will help the skin have extra crisp and extra taste, too.

 

Turkey with Chili Crisp Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 Fresh or Defrosted Turkey
  • 1 cup Chili Crisp

Instructions

  • Loosen the skin of the turkey by pushing your impeccably clean hands under the skin at the neck and back of the turkey.
  • Take tablespoons of Chili Crisp in your fingers, again with impeccably clean hands and rub in the spaces you have created between the skin and the meat of the bird.
  • Serve Chili Crisp at the table for those who want to add it to their gravy or who just want more straight on their slices.

Notes

NOTE: For those looking for lots of flavor without the heat, this method can also be done with Za’atar Blend. Mix ¾ cup of Za’atar with ½ of really good Olive Oil and rub it under the skin as described in Preparation.
