Turkey Breast Stewed with Prunes
10 servings
90 minutes
Variety is what will help white turkey meat avoid the sin of monotony. We are used to using prunes as a powerful flavor additive, for example, when stewing pork. But the turkey in this combination looks much more tender and healthy, and the contrast with the almost marmalade plums is no less vivid. The main thing is not to rush, be patient, turn on the smallest fire under the pan and let the turkey soak up the sweetness of the plums and the spruce aroma of rosemary. The dish is doomed to success: due to many years of habit, stewed prunes do not cause rejection even in those who, in principle, do not understand the combination of meat and sweet fruit sauce.
