Ground Turkey or Chicken

 

I can’t tell you why, but it is very hard to find ground turkey or chicken here in France! As a lighter substitute for ground beef or pork, I sometimes like to cook with ground white meat and find it frustrating that it is rarely available at the supermarket. 

​

Some butchers will grind (hacher) turkey or chicken if you ask them too, but not at all. I bought the 'hachoir’ or meat grinder attachment for my Kenwood Cooking Chef, but if you don’t have a meat grinder, I’ve found that doing it in a food processor works just fine as well! I was surprised because visually it does not look exactly the same, but once cooked, you can hardly tell the difference!

 

Just cut your chicken or turkey breast in 2-inch (5-cm) hunks, place them in the bowl of your food processor with the blade attachment and pulse until well ground. And voila!
