CREAMED TURKEY ON TOAST

For a slightly thinner consistency, use ½ cup of flour instead of the ¾ cup noted in the recipe. Also, feel free to use 1 quart of half & half instead of the cream and milk.

Provided by Martha

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 quart of turkey or chicken stock
2 pounds cooked turkey or chicken meat
2 cups heavy cream (see note above)
2 cups whole milk (see note above)
1 stick butter
½ pound onion sliced into thick half moons (about one medium to large onion)
¾ cup flour (see note)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon freshly grated McCormick Gourmet Nutmeg
½ teaspoon McCormick Gourmet Dry Mustard
¼ teaspoon McCormick Gourmet White Pepper
¼ teaspoon McCormick Gourmet Onion Powder
¼ teaspoon McCormick Gourmet Garlic Powder
¼ teaspoon McCormick Gourmet Curry Powder
2 cups frozen green peas, thawed
Unsliced white or hearty country bread

Steps:

  • The stock needs to reduce down from one quart to three cups so place on stove and simmer until reduced.
  • If you have part of a turkey leftover and are using the meat from that for this recipe, place the whole carcass in with the stock. It will help soften the meat so you can remove it from the bone. This step is only an option if you don't already have the two pounds of cooked turkey or chicken and are picking meat from a turkey or chicken.
  • Once the stock has reduced, add milk and cream and heat just until hot. Keep warm over low heat.
  • In a large skillet, melt butter over medium and add onions. Cook until translucent and no longer crunchy.
  • Add flour and cook for three minutes.
  • Add stock and cream mixture one third at a time to the skillet, stirring each time with a wire whip.
  • Once all of the liquid is in, add salt, nutmeg, mustard, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and curry powder.
  • Cook over low heat for a few minutes and add cooked turkey or chicken shredding as you add.
  • Bring up to hot but be careful not to scorch.
  • Add frozen peas, stir and hold over low heat while you slice and toast the bread.
  • Slice bread into thick slices and lightly toast.
  • To serve, place single slices of toast on dinner plates and top with a generous portion of the creamed chicken.
  • Great served with steamed carrots.

MAMAW'S CREAMED TURKEY OVER TOAST



Mamaw's Creamed Turkey over Toast image

The day after Thanksgiving you can achieve the very pinnacle of comfort food! My mom ended up having to bake several turkeys a year just so we could get this stuff. Some very knowledgeable 'Zaarites helped me to ressurect it as the recipe had been lost.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 40m

Yield 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups whole milk
2/3 cup chicken stock
4 tablespoons margarine
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
5 cups cooked turkey, deboned and roughly chopped
12 slices white bread, toasted

Steps:

  • In a large no-stick skillet, begin heating the milk, margarine and chicken stock over medium heat.
  • Whisk in the flour right away, eliminating all lumps, and as it comes to a boil, it should thicken.
  • Add the salt and pepper. (Black pepper is okay as a substitute).
  • As it thickens, toss in the chopped turkey and stir carefully as to not break up the chunks too much.
  • If it gets too thick, just add some milk and stir.
  • As soon as the mix is thick enough to your liking, it is done. Turn off the heat and cover until serving.
  • Serve over slices of toast or, make up some of your favorite biscuits instead.
  • If you have some left-over turkey broth from the day before when the turkey was baked, use that instead of chicken stock.
  • Note: the more dark meat, the better. It really adds to the flavor of this dish.

MINCED CHICKEN ON TOAST



Minced Chicken on Toast image

Categories     Bread     Sauce     Chicken     Summer

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 teaspoons butter
2 or 3 button mushrooms or cremini, finely chopped
1 scallion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon Madeira
3/4-1 cup cooked chicken, cut into very small pieces-i.e., minced
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup Cream Sauce (page 164), or 2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 slice good white bread or English muffin, toasted
A sprinkling of tarragon, fresh or dried

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a small pan, and add the mushrooms and scallion. Cook gently for about 5 minutes, to soften. Splash in the Madeira, and cook down until syrupy.
  • Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and heat through, stirring in enough of the cream sauce to bind the chicken or use heavy cream. Spoon everything over toast, and sprinkle a little tarragon on top.
  • I like to surround my mince with a green vegetable, such as asparagus or peas when in season.
  • Variations
  • This mince is good made with the remains of a holiday turkey, and if you have some chestnuts left over, by all means use a couple of them, roughly chopped, in place of the mushrooms.
  • Another accompaniment I tried recently was some young milkweed pods, their tender leaves and buds still closed. I steamed them for about 8 minutes, then bathed them in sweet butter and a few drops of lemon. It made for an early-summer treat, just right with an old-fashioned New England mince.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your cream of turkey on toast the best flavor. If you can, use organic turkey and fresh vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the turkey: Overcooked turkey will be tough and dry. Cook it just until it is cooked through, about 10 minutes per pound.
  • Use a good quality bread: The bread you use will make a big difference in the final dish. Choose a sturdy bread that can hold up to the creamy sauce, such as a sourdough or French bread.
  • Season the sauce to taste: The sauce should be creamy and flavorful. Season it with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Serve immediately: Cream of turkey on toast is best served immediately after it is made. The sauce will thicken as it cools, so if you need to make it ahead of time, reheat it gently over low heat until it is warmed through.

Conclusion:

Cream of turkey on toast is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover turkey after a holiday meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
