Pilaf with Turkey Thigh Recipe
Turkey meat is dietary, healthy and rich in trace elements. And if the story with the breast is usually a little dry, then the thigh is just a discovery for me: very tasty and juicy meat both in itself and as part of dishes. Pilaf with turkey thigh, although it does not pretend to be compared with the original recipe for pilaf with lamb, but it is prepared much faster, it turns out less fatty, and the taste is also very rich and interesting

  7. After this time, do not hesitate to catch a piece of meat and bite it off. As a rule, it is already ready. Cover the rice and turn down the heat again to maximum. Intervene while nothing is needed. We need to wait for the water to boil off the surface, it was not enough for long. You can "pierce" the mass of rice to the bottom in several places (with the back of the skimmer, for example) so that the liquid boils not only at the edges, but also in the middle of the dish. When the water disappears from sight, boils off, turn off the stove, cover the cauldron with a lid, you can just put the plate in the cauldron, but then, as for me, it is very inconvenient to take it out. I suggest covering the pan and the whole thing with a towel.
