To taste fresh herbs - cilantro, parsley, oregano, basil, as desired
Enchiladas for two
4 wraps or tortillas of your choice
1 cup leftover Canadian turkey, shredded
½ cup grated mozzarella cheese
1 cup leftover piri-piri sauce
Top with a few fresh cilantro leaves just before serving as garnish
Directions
For piri-piri turkey
Remove neck and giblets from cavity of turkey.
Combine all ingredients for the piri-piri marinade in your blender and blend until smooth.
Marinate the turkey for 24 hours in refrigerator in this marinade (pour it into the cavity and massage it onto all surfaces) - turn as needed after 12 hours or use a very large freezer bag.
Place the turkey and marinade in a large roasting pan, breast side down and cook at 300°F for 1.5 hours.
Turn the turkey breast side up and continue cooking for about 2 more hours.
The turkey is ready when meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh (without touching the bone) reads 170°F.
Save gravy from cooking pan for the enchiladas.
For the enchiladas:
Divide the leftover shredded turkey among the tortillas or wraps then roll them up and place side by side them in a baking dish.
Pour piri-piri gravy on the top and spread evenly in the baking dish.
Top with grated mozzarella.
Bake or air fry at 375°F for 10 to 12 minutes or until cheese is baked and crusty.
*For air fryer cooking, watch for 6 minutes or more as some appliances cook faster.
