tur-duck-hen ? Hawaiian ?
It's called a turducken. we had it for Thanksgiving dinner last year. not sure it's quite a "hawaiian dish" though. It's chicken inside a duck inside a turkey. It actually wasn't all that great but was definitely something i always wanted to try.
Maybe you're thinking of a variation of kalua pig??!!! alua pig is one of the mainstays of a traditional Hawaiian lu'au. Cooking of the pig is traditionally done in an underground pit called an imu. A pig is normally cleaned and gutted, then filled with hot lava rocks before being wrapped with ti leaves (or banana leaves) and lowered into an imu to cook. Since many of us don't have the luxury of cooking a pig for an entire day in a pit dug into our backyards, the following recipe will provide you with a similar flavor. Kalua pig (makes approximately 6 servings) 3 pound pork butt* (well marbled) 1 1/2 tablespoons liquid smoke* Hawaiian salt*, to taste 6-8 ti leaves*, ribs removed http://onokinegrindz.typepad.com/ono_kine_grindz/2005/10/kalua_pig.html
I live in Hawaii and I've never heard of a dish with a chicken cooked inside a turkey. Prickle' wrote a msg about kalua pig. He mentioned that it is cooked in a pit oven. That is called an Imu, and that maybe where the ostrich came into the mix. Good luck
