Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¼ cup vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon cold water
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 cup heavy cream
• ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 (8 ounce) can whole cranberry sauce
• 1 pound ground turkey
• ½ teaspoon dried sage
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1 cup bread crumbs
• 1 teaspoon ground paprika

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Mix together the turkey, eggs, 1 cup bread crumbs, garlic, salt, paprika, sage, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a bowl. Divide mixture into 4 patties. Coat each patty with 1/4 cup breadcrumbs.

Step 3

Heat the oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook patties in the heated oil until browned, 4 to 5 minutes each side. Keeping the patties in the skillet, remove about 1/2 the remaining oil from the skillet; add the cranberry sauce to the skillet; cover with aluminum foil.

Step 4

Place the covered skillet in the preheated oven and cook the patties until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (75 degrees C), about 15 minutes. Remove patties from the skillet and wrap in aluminum foil to keep warm.

Step 5

Return skillet to medium heat on stove. Stir the heavy cream into the cranberry sauce. Whisk together the cornstarch and water; slowly add to the skillet; cook and stir until sauce thickens. Pour sauce over patties to serve.
