My wife likes apricots, so I revised a recipe for orange-glazed ham to be used with turkey. My family says it's tops.

Yield 2 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 turkey drumsticks (12 ounces each)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 celery rib, halved
1 small onion, halved
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon whole peppercorns
1/3 cup apricot preserves, warmed
1 can (8-3/4 ounces) apricot halves, drained

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven, brown turkey in oil. Add the celery, onion, salt, peppercorns and enough water to cover drumsticks. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until meat is tender. Remove drumsticks from broth; drain well. (Discard broth or strain and reserve for another use.), Place drumsticks in a greased shallow roasting pan. Brush with half the preserves. Top with apricot halves; brush apricots with remaining preserves. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 8-10 minutes or until glaze is set.
