Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2-2 lbs cooked turkey, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
2 -3 carrots, chopped
2 -3 stalks celery, chopped
16 ounces frozen chopped broccoli (or fresh if you've got it)
1/2 cup flour
4 tablespoons butter
4 cups stock (chicken or turkey)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Before anything, prep the broccoli. Thaw in a covered, microwave-safe bowl with 2 tablespoons of water in the bottom. Cook broccoli for 3-4 minutes, long enough to defrost it, but not cook it completely. If using fresh broccoli, skip this step.
  • Melt the butter in a pot or dutch oven.
  • Add onion and cook until translucent.
  • Add flour to the onion and butter in the pan and stir until combined.
  • Cook flour mixture for about a minute.
  • Add stock.
  • Stirring constantly, heat until mixture comes to a boil and thickens.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients.
  • Once the fricasse reaches a simmer turn the heat down to medium, cover and cook for ~30 minutes, stirring occasionally. It's done when the vegetables are tender.

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.

Conclusion

Turkey fricassee is a classic comfort food dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and satisfying turkey fricassee that your whole family will enjoy.
