Turkey Melt With Chutney

duonyte's Note:

Courtesy of the folks at Butterball. This was very tasty as a melt, but the filling would also be good as a turkey salad sandwich.

• Total Time: 25 mins
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 8

• 2 cups diced cooked turkey
• 1/3 cup finely chopped celery or 1/3 cup fennel
• 3 minced scallions
• 1/4 cup prepared chutney
• 1/2 cup regular mayonnaise or 1/2 cup light mayonnaise
• 4 whole wheat English muffins, split and toasted
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese or 1 cup swiss cheese
• 8 slices tomatoes (optional)
• 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (optional)

Directions:

1. Combine turkey, celery, scallions, chutney, and optional cilantro. Mix in enough mayonnaise to bind. Chill until ready to use.
2. Preheat broiler.
3. Arrange English muffin halves on foil-lined baking sheet. Top with a slice of tomato, then the turkey mix, and finally the cheese.
4. Broil a few inches from heat source for 3 or 4 minutes, until bubbly. Serve.
5. Note: I suggest foil on the baking sheet to make cleanup easier. Butterball suggest 8 servings from this, but I think that's a bit optimistic. It depends on your family's appetites, of course.

Really enjoyed this with my leftover Thanksgiving turkey! I liked it best as just turkey salad, although the melt was very enjoyable. Very quick and easy to make after coming home from work. I did not include the tomato, as it isn't in season here right now and what we get have no taste! Did enjoy the fresh cilantro. Made for PRMR tag.
