Ingredients

1 turkey breast and wing
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 medium onions, chopped
Bacon fat or oil
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 small dried hot red chile powder
1 cup ground nuts (almonds, walnuts, peanuts or cashews)
1 ounces bitter chocolate
1 cup ripe olives (optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cut the turkey wing into 2 pieces, and the breast into 3 or 4 pieces. Place in large kettle with enough water to cover, and bring to a boil. Add the salt, and simmer for 30 minutes. Meanwhile brown the onion in bacon fat or oil. Add to kettle, along with garlic, chili powder, red pepper, nuts and chocolate. Cover and simmer until turkey is tender and the sauce is well blended and thickened. Correct seasoning. Add olives about ten minutes before serving, if you wish.

  2. Step 2

    Serve with polenta and a cucumber salad.
