Ingredients
Sweet & Sour Cranberry Sauce (recipe, this page):
Method
In wide shallow bowl, stir together flour, garlic powder and salt. In second wide shallow bowl, whisk eggs with buttermilk. Place cracker crumbs in third wide shallow bowl.
Dredge each turkey piece in flour mixture, then in egg mixture, then in cracker crumbs, pressing to adhere; place on baking tray. Set aside in refrigerator.
In heavy-bottomed saucepan, add enough oil to come 1 inch up side. Heat over medium heat until oil reaches 350°F. Working a few at a time, fry nuggets, turning halfway through cooking time, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer to wire rack set on paper towel-lined baking sheet. Let cool completely. Freeze in airtight container, layered between parchment paper, for up to 3 months.
To Cook Preheat oven to 425°F. Place frozen croquettes on lightly oiled baking sheet; bake until heated through, about 15 minutes. Serve with Sweet & Sour Cranberry Sauce.
