I guess I can't complain too much about the cooking, I didn't make a whole turkey, just a turkey breast, ham (that just needed to be warmed) and a bunch of sides. I was trying to time everything to be cooked and still warm when it came to dinner. I wasn't having any luck and then the Ninja Cooking System arrived and solved all my problems!
Let's find out what the Ninja Cooking System website has to say:
- Heats from the bottom and the sides at the same time
- Cook meats up to 50%* faster than in a conventional oven
- Fast and healthy one pot meals in 30 minutes or less
* Delicious family meals ready in 30 minutes. Everything ready at the same time. Tastes great! Saves time! Easy non-stick pot clean-up.
* Bottom & Side Heat and super-heated steam cooks up to 50% faster*, with less fat vs. conventional ovens.
* Sear using built-in stovetop before slow cooking – all in one appliance! Re-heat meals in the same non-stick pot! Lock in the flavor!
* Use up to half the fat in your favorite cake mix! Combination of steam infusion and direct heat offers more moist, better tasting results – less calories.
Obviously, I could give example after example of what I could do with this, but let's talk about how it saved Christmas. I decided to steam roast my turkey breast in the Ninja to save some space in my oven. I started by searing each side of the turkey breast on the stove top setting. This took about 40 minutes because I seared each side for about 10 minutes. It was pretty simple and I didn't use any oils, just plopped the turkey right in there. Next I took the turkey out only to place the roasting rack under it. I added 1 cup of water and 1 cup of apple cider. I placed some fresh thyme and rosemary around the turkey and threw some pepper and orange peels in the water. I let the turkey roast for about an hour and a half.
