Inject in four points: the breast and legs.

7

Sauté chopped onion until translucent, then add minced garlic and cook for about 5 minutes.

9

Incorporate ground beef and pork (or chicken if preferred), adding salt and more red wine.

10

Mix in chopped peaches in syrup and diced apples, then combine everything well.

11

Stuff the turkey cavity with the mixture, pressing down to avoid empty spaces.

12

Tie the turkey with kitchen twine or use toothpicks to secure it.

Place the turkey in a roasting pan with orange slices to prevent sticking and add flavor.

14

Cover the tips of the wings and legs with aluminum foil to prevent burning.
