Tips for Making the Best Turkey Fricassee
- Use high-quality ingredients. Start with a good quality turkey and fresh vegetables. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
- Don't overcook the turkey. Turkey can easily become dry and tough if it is overcooked. Cook it just until it is cooked through, about 15-20 minutes per pound.
- Use a good quality stock. The stock you use will also make a big difference in the flavor of your fricassee. Use a homemade stock or a good quality store-bought stock.
- Add vegetables that you enjoy. The vegetables in a fricassee can be varied depending on your personal preferences. Some common vegetables to use include carrots, celery, onions, and peas.
- Season the dish to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of white wine or lemon juice to brighten the flavors.
- Serve over rice or mashed potatoes. Turkey fricassee is traditionally served over rice or mashed potatoes. This helps to soak up the delicious sauce.
