HAWAIIAN KALUA TURKEY
Aloha! My husband got this recipe when he lived in Hawaii. It started with Kalua Pig and later was used on Turkey. It's cooked long and slow in a pit in the ground. Ed wanted to take and dig a hole in the lawn, but I wouldn't let him (LOL) so we cooked it in our oven. Moist and tender, unbeleivably succulent! Mahalo!

Pour some inside turkey cavities and the rest all over outside of turkey. Use 2 handfuls of Hawaiian Salt(or sea salt) and 3 T of black pepper and mix together. Season inside and outside of turkey well with mix.

Steps:
- 1. Place the turkey breast in the bottom of crock pot. Turn on high and cover with lid as you prepare some of the other ingredients.
- 2. In a medium sized bowl add in the pineapple tidbits, jam, brown sugar, chicken broth, water chestnuts, 2 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes, green onions, dried chives, red bell pepper, black pepper, salt, garlic and lime juice. Whisk until well blend and sugar disappears and no longer appears granulated any more. Pour mixture over the turkey breast in the crock pot. Put lid back on the crock pot. Cook for 1 1/2 hours on high.
- 3. Remove the lid and baste the turkey with the sauce, turning the meat over. Replace the lid and allow to continue to cook for 1 hour longer. At 30 minutes, prepare the cornstarch slurry.
- 4. Place the cornstarch in a medium sized bowl, add in the hot water and whisk until well blended and smooth. Add in the butter and whisk until velvety smooth. Dip out 1 to 1 1/2 cups of the crock pot sauce and whisk it into the cornstarch slurry.
- 5. Remove the turkey meat from the crock pot and set aside on a platter. Slice the beast into nice 3/4 inch to 1-inch slices and cut into half midway.
- 6. Add the cornstarch slurry/gravy to the crock pot whisking it in to blend and smooth out all the liquids. When smooth, add the turkey slices back to the crock pot. Replace lid and allow to cook on low for 1 hour.
- 7. When ready to serve, plate a serving with rice and black beans, garnish with a small pinch/ sprinkle of the remaining crushed red pepper flakes and a green onion blossom (optional) and serve.
- 8. To make the green onion blossoms, clean each green onion by cutting off the stem and most of the green tops, (use them in this recipe. End up with a length of about 4-6 inches total. Place onion on cutting board and slice through the white end lengthwise, turn it over and slice through again. DO NOT cut away, keep the onion in tact/whole. Place the prepared onions in a glass filled with ice water and place in the refrigerator until ready to use. The slice white ends will curl and make and nice little blossom for garnish!
