Smoked Turkey With Apple Cherry Chutney

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday (it's yours too, right?) and I love how the meal brings families together. It's an opportunity to celebrate old traditions or create new ones. However, there can often be so much to stress over Thanksgiving — it's a huge meal! It's called a feast for a reason. All of those dishes need to be ready at the same time in a kitchen that's usually too small, while family you haven't seen in years wants to catch up while giving you conflicting advice for when you need to flip the bird. (Just smile and pour yourself another glass of wine.) Cooking a Thanksgiving dinner can be totally overwhelming, yet you want it to be perfect.

Enter this incredible smoked turkey with apple cherry chutney. We love smoked turkey, especially for leftovers. I love serving it with jam or chutney, on sandwiches, in salads, and almost anywhere that I would normally serve chicken.

The Harry & David smoked turkey is beyond easy. It arrives already smoked, so all you need to do is throw it in the oven until it's warmed through. I like to serve it with an array of garnishes and aromatics, like fresh oranges and herbs and even some wedges of pomegranate. Yes, pomegranate. Give it a try. The pièce de résistance is the apple cherry chutney on the side. The sweetness of chutney complements the smoky flavor of the turkey wonderfully.

Not only does the smoked turkey simplify your Thanksgiving preparation, it brings fantastic flavor and deliciousness to the holiday!
