طريقة التحضير

خطوة بخطوة

1
Place the turkey pieces in a large bowl.
حوالي 1 د
2
Add the lime juice, orange juice, minced garlic, chopped scotch bonnet pepper, chopped fresh thyme, chopped green onion, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the turkey.
حوالي 5 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: Wear gloves when handling scotch bonnet peppers to avoid skin irritation.
3
Mix well to ensure all turkey pieces are coated with the marinade.
حوالي 2 د
4
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
حوالي 2 س
5
Transfer the marinated turkey and all the marinade liquid to a large pot.
حوالي 1 د
6
Add the water to the pot.
7
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the turkey is tender.
حوالي 30 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: The turkey should be cooked through but not falling apart.
8
Remove the turkey pieces from the pot with a slotted spoon and set them aside on a plate.
حوالي 2 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: Discard the cooking liquid or save it for another use, like a broth base.
9
Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
حوالي 3 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: The oil should be hot enough to sizzle when a piece of turkey is added, around 350°F (175°C).
10
Carefully add the cooked turkey pieces to the hot oil in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
حوالي 2 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: Overcrowding will lower the oil temperature and result in steamed, rather than crispy, turkey.
11
Fry the turkey for about 5-7 minutes per batch, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on all sides.
حوالي 7 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning while ensuring even browning.
12
Remove the fried turkey pieces with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
حوالي 1 د
13
Serve hot, traditionally with fried plantains or rice and beans.
