Cornbread Turducken

-
 

A series of authentic Thanksgiving recipes from Louisiana



 

Turduckens are rare, and they are also know as the roast without equals, so it makes sense that we would serve them in a city of fantastic appetites like New Orleans. 


A Turducken is a deboned chicken and a duck wrapped inside a deboned turkey.


Between the layers of meat, we will add a delicious cajun cornbread stuffing that will make the meal even more delicious. (Click here for the Cajun Cornbread recipe)








Ingredients


1 (20-25) lb turkey, deboned with legs and wings still attached

2 to 3  tbsp poultry Tony Chacheries seasoning

Cajun cornbread stuffing (click here for the recipe)

1 (5 to 6 lb) duckling, deboned

1 (3 to 4 lb) chicken, deboned



Cooking Directions

1. Make the turkey flat. Spread the turkey skin side down on a flat surface, then rub the whole turkey with Louisiana seasoning. Cover the turkey evenly with cornbread stuffing, and spread it in layer of half an inch thickness.

 (here is the link of our Cajun cornbread stuffing recipe).
2. On top of the turkey covered in cornbread stuffing, the duckling is placed skin side down, and a half an inch layer of Cajun cornbread is spread over it.

3. On top of the duckling covered in cornbread stuffing, the chicken is placed skin side down, and a half an inch layer of Cajun cornbread is spread over it, so that it covers the entire chicken.

4. You should stitch the birds closed, starting at their necks, with kitchen twine and a needle. The birds can be held together more easily if someone else holds them while you sew. Tighten the legs below the tip bone by tying them together.

5. The oven should be preheated to 325˚F. In a roasting pan, place the assembled turducken, breast side up, and cook until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 180 degrees. It should take between four and five hours to complete.

6. Once the turducken has cooled down a bit, slice the turducken from side to side, so that everyone gets a taste of the turkey, the duck and the chicken.




Serves 10 to 12

Enjoy!

Cajun Fried Catfish

  CAJUN FRIED CATFISH An old-fashioned favorite in the Deep South, Cajun Fried Catfish is breaded in spicy cornmeal and soaked in buttermilk. Cajun Fried Catfish is really the same as Southern Fried Catfish, just kicked up with some good ol Cajun spices for added flavor and heat.  I grew up eating a lot of fried catfish.  Before frying, the fish should be soaked in buttermilk for 30 minutes to an hour.    In some old recipes, plain milk is called for, but buttermilk's acid does the trick rather than plain milk. Ingredients 6   pounds   catfish fillets 1   cup   buttermilk 4   cups   vegetable oil or lard for frying Cornmeal Mix: 1   cup   all-purpose flour 2 1/2   cups   yellow cornmeal 2   tablespoons   Cajun Seasoning   used: Tony Chacheries Seasoning 1   teaspoon   garlic powder or granulated garlic 2   teaspoons   ground black pepper Instructions Place fish fillet strips in a large bowl after rinsing under cold water.
