Bill's Grilled Wild Turkey BreastFrom the kitchen of Julie Fadda Eastman
Bill Cadman has been making wine at Tulocay since 1975, and since the beginning he's been recognized for his Pinot Noir. A small production winery, Tulocay makes about 2,000 cases per year. His Nord Family Vineyard Pinot Noir is made from Will Nord's vineyard on the Napa side of Cam eros. Reminiscent of French Burgundy, it hits the palate with cherries and toast and then rounds out with berries, a hint of chocolate and spice. Paired here with Bill's recipe for wild turkey breast, it's an ideal accompaniment for a harvest feast. And according to Bill, the rub works well for chicken thighs, too. So there you go — it's a two-for-one pairing. Serves 6
Euthanize one wild turkey (preferably not in front of its family). Slice breasts into 3/ 4-inch steaks and marinate for 2 to 4 hours in Tulocay Pinot Noir (enough to cover the breasts), lemon juice, a touch of salt, black pepper, olive oil and red wine vinegar. Remove the turkey from the marinade and pat dry. Mix together lemon pepper, chili powder and red pepper flakes, then lightly apply to the turkey. Grill for 15-20 minutes and serve. |
