INSTRUCTIONS
SWEET-PEPPER-CITRUS SALSA
Place turkey in a heavy plastic bag set in a large mixing bowl. For
marinade, in a small bowl combine olive oil, lemon juice, orange peel,
orange juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper; pour over turkey in bag.
Close bag and turn turkey to coat well. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2
to 4 hours, turning occasionally.
Remove turkey from bag, reserving marinade. Grill directly over medium
coals for 12 to 15 minutes or till no pink remains, brushing with marinade
during the first 6 minutes and turning once. Serve with Sweet-Pepper-Citrus
Salsa. If desired, garnish with lettuce and basil. Makes 6 servings.
