Craisin & Orange Glaze
I had some turkey that I wanted to grill, but wanted to put a little twist on just a regular grilled turkey. I was also craving (and still am) Thanksgiving dinner. I decided to pull together a sort of modern Thanksgiving dinner. Here’s the glaze I made for the grilled turkey.
Ingredients & Directions:
- 1 C Brown Sugar
- 1/2 tsp Orange Zest
- 2/3 C Craisins
- 1/3 C Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice
- 1/2 C Grand Marnier
- 1/4 tsp Cinnamon
In a sauce pan melt the brown sugar over a low heat. Once the sugar is melted add the orange zest and stir for a few moments until it’s thoroughly mixed. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil, continuously stirring so it does not burn. Cook until the mix is reduced and slightly thickened.
I poured the glaze over the grilled turkey, served it with squash ravioli in a light brown butter sage sauce, and roasted panko crusted asparagus.
