1
Using a knife or poultry shears, cut down either side of the turkey backbone, then discard the backbone. Cut the turkey in half through the breastbone, then cut each half into even-sized pieces.
2
Toss the turkey pieces in flour and shake away the excess. Heat half of the oil in a large saucepan and cook the turkey, in batches, until browned all over. Drain on paper towels.
3
Heat the remaining oil in a pan and cook the onion, garlic, mushrooms, apricot and pepper, stirring, until the onion is soft. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until most of the liquid has evaporated.
4
Return the turkey to the pan and add the stock and nectar. Stir until combined, then simmer, covered, for about 40 mins or until the turkey is tender.
5
Serve sprinkled with parsley.
