Mediterranean Crockpot Turkey

Every other day I hear from friends and clients that they struggle with finding new recipes that their family will eat and are easy enough to get them on the table with minimal fuss.  So, we are going to add blog posts each month with staff tested recipes and our families have eaten and enjoyed and are easy to get on the table.  This week’s recipe is Mediterranean Crockpot Turkey.

Ingredients:

1 (4 pound+) turkey breast (bone in or boneless)

3 cups chopped onion (about 2 medium)

1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives

1/2 cup julienne-cut drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic (or 2 dorot frozen garlic cubes)

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1/2 cup chicken broth

1/2 teaspoon thyme

1/2 teaspoon oregano

 

Combine all ingredients in crockpot and cook on low for 7 hours.  When done, turkey can be plated by shredding into smaller pieces and topped with the jus and onion mixture from cockpot.  For pickier eaters, serve the onion mixture and jus on the side.  Baked potatoes, mashed potatoes or rice and green beansmake great side dishes.
