To make turkey with prunes, we need: 500g turkey fillet; 100 g seedless prunes; 4 garlic cloves; 2 tbsp. l vegetable oil; 1 tbsp. l. honey; black ground pepper and salt to taste.

Wash the turkey, dry, remove the films and cut into medium pieces. I used hip fillet - such meat turns out a little softer and fatter. But you can also replace it with breast fillet.

Rinse prunes without seeds. It is best to check prunes for the absence of bones or their fragments, because it often happens that their particles remain in the fruits and this is found in the midst of the meal and sometimes with not the best consequences for the teeth. Therefore, it is better to check everything in advance. If the prunes are too hard, you can fill it with boiling water and leave it for 10 minutes. Then drain the water, and dry the dried fruits on a towel.

Peel the garlic. Cut large denticles along into 2-3 parts. Keep the small ones intact.

In a bowl, combine turkey fillet and prunes. Add vegetable oil, honey, salt and pepper. It is better to take liquid or semi-liquid honey, which did not have time to fully sugarcate and harden. Then he will disperse better on meat. If the honey has hardened, it is better to melt it in the microwave or in the oven and cool it.

Mix everything and leave the meat to marinate for 2 hours in the refrigerator or for 1 hours at room temperature.

Put the turkey with prunes in the baking dish. Spread garlic cloves on top. Put the turkey tin in the oven warmed to 180 ° C and bake the meat for about 40 minutes until the ruddy crust appears. Periodically pour juice over the turkey from the bottom of the mold.

You can serve turkey with prunes with any side dish. Enjoy your meal!
