Turkey and Wild Rice Phyllo Purse


Yield: 2

Establishment: Restaurant, Club Operation, Catering Operation
 
Ethnicity: New American
 
Meal Type: Appetizer
 
Preparation Method: Bake
 
Product Type: Roasted Turkey Breast, Cooked Turkey
 







1/2 Cup COOKED TURKEY, diced small
1/2 Cup cooked wild rice
1/4 Teaspoon poultry seasoning
4 Sheets phyllo
2 Ounces butter, melted
1 Ounce cold butter, cubed
1 Scallion
1/4 Cup cranberry sauce
 
  1. In a bowl, mix the turkey, wild rice and poultry seasoning. Reserve.
  2. Lay one phyllo sheet on a work table and brush with butter. Top with second sheet and brush again with butter.
  3. Repeat until the phyllo is stacked four layers high. Using a knife, cut the phyllo in half to get 2 squares. Reserve remaining melted butter.
  4. Place half of the turkey mixture in the center of one phyllo square and the other half in the center of the other square. Place butter cubes on top of each turkey-rice mixture.
  5. Pull the four corners of each phyllo stack up around each filling pile to get a “purse” shape. Slice the scallion in half lengthwise and use it as “string” to hold the purses tied around the filling.
  6. Move purses to a baking sheet. Brush with remaining melted butter.
  7. Bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven until purses are golden brown and flaky, about 7 - 10 minutes.
  8. Serve purses hot with dollops of cranberry sauce around the plate.
