#5 Roast Turkey Dinner - 7x7 Christmas Turkey Redux

We’ve included Roast Turkey Dinner in our 7 By 7 Christmas Turkey Redux because you just can’t get enough roast turkey, good stuffing, gravy, and cranberry relish and it’s so easy to prepare.  Put on a plate and reheat in the microwave. 


This is the classic and it’s good enough to repeat.  In fact, it gets better the second and third time around.  Here we’ve got roasted turkey, stuffing, gravy, and cranberry relish with a side of Brussels sprouts. 


The sprouts are served in a ramekin to keep their sauce from mixing with the turkey gravy.  The sauce for the Brussels sprouts was an intense reduction of Clementine juice, lemon zest, and pancetta.  This citrus-based sauce was a nice balance to the mineral flavors from the sprouts and the richness of the pancetta.
