Recipe Introduction
From Flavors Magazine (Whole Foods)
List of Ingredients
2 eggs
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 cups cooked wild rice pilaf or white rice pilaf
2 cups chopped cooked white and dark turkey meat
2 bunches Swiss chard
Recipe
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, garlic, pepper, salt and parsley.
Stir in wild rice pilaf and turkey.
Set filling aside.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.
Rinse chard well to remove any grit.
Cut stems off where leaf begins. Very large leaves (more that 12 inches long) should be cut in half to make 2 rolls.
Flatten any large stalks with a fork to allow for even blanching and easier rolling.
Immerse 4 to 6 leaves at a time in boiling water and blanch for 1 minute.
Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and allow leaves to drain.
When leaves have cooled slightly, lay flat (pretty side down) and place 3 to 4 tablespoons filling in center.
Start with the large end of a leaf, fold over filling and roll up like a burrito.
Place rolls seam side down in a steamer basket and steam for 6-8 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
Serve immediately.
