- =============================== shopping list

- 6 ounces orange juice shopping list
- 5 ounces Southern Comfort shopping list
How to make it
- Place turkey breast in roasting pan.
- Sprinkle with coarse salt, pepper, the oregano, the ginger, and the sage.
- Roast at 350*F for 45 minutes, then add the vegetables…
- ===============================
- Veggie prep:
- Cut all except the sweet potato coarsely.
- The potato dish is cooked separately, roasted.
- Continue roasting turkey breast another 45 min, or until the veggies are tender, and the turkey is golden brown.
- ===============================
- The sweet potato:
- Cut into ‘potato steaks’ as illustrated…
- Sprinkle with a little coarse salt, and olive oil
- Roast in a ceramic roasting pan or casserole dish, covered, until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- ===============================
- Do the flambe:
- *******CAUTION*******
- When lit, the flame will reach up nearly 2 feet.
- I STRONGLY recommend doing the flambé part outside, as no heat is required underneath the pan, and the fire risk is too great when done indoors.
- Combine with the sweet potatoes:
- The orange juice
- The Southern Comfort
- Take dish outside, and set aflame.
- STAND WELL BACK while the alcohol burns off.
- After the flame goes out, you’re safe to bring it back inside.
- Use oven mitts, as the dish will be VERY hot!
- Because no alcohol remains, this dish is quite safe for children to consume.
- Served with a side salad, this dish is guaranteed to delight you, your family, and any dinner guest!
- ENJOY! :+D
- NOTE:
- Preparing this today, and pictures will follow from start to finish. Please bear with me until I get all piccies done! :+D
