Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 4h50m

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 leftover roasted turkey carcass, plus 3 to 4 cups shredded turkey meat
1 onion, quartered
2 stalks celery, quartered crosswise (save the leaves for the Dumplings)
1 pound carrots (3 quartered crosswise; the rest thinly sliced)
1 bay leaf
3 sprigs parsley
3 sprigs thyme
Dumpling Dough, recipe follows
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 shallots, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound parsnips, peeled and thinly sliced Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 pound green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
Chopped fresh chives, for topping
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
3/4 cup minced mixed fresh herbs and celery leaves
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 1/2 cups cold buttermilk

Steps:

  • Make the stock: Pull the turkey carcass apart into smaller pieces; set the meat aside. Put the bones in a large, deep pot and add cold water to cover, 4 to 5 quarts. Add the onion, celery, the 3 quartered carrots and the bay leaf. Tie the parsley and thyme together with twine and add to the pot, then cover and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Uncover, reduce the heat to medium low and cook 3 to 4 hours. Remove the bones and vegetables with a skimmer and discard, then strain the stock though a fine-mesh strainer. Return the stock to the pot and simmer over medium-high heat until reduced by half, 30 to 40 minutes (you'll have about 8 cups stock).
  • About 45 minutes before serving, prepare the Dumplings. Keep covered with plastic wrap while you make the stew.
  • Make the stew: Melt the butter in a large, wide pot over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Gradually add the stock, stirring, and bring to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper. Add the sliced carrots and parsnips, cover and cook 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the turkey meat, lemon juice and green beans. Add the Dumplings in a single layer (leave as squares or pat into rounds). Cover and simmer until the Dumplings are cooked through, about 20 minutes. Ladle into bowls; top with chives.
  • Whisk the flour, herb mixture, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender until sandy. Stir in the buttermilk.
  • Turn out onto a floured piece of parchment paper. Pat into a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle.
  • Cut the dough into rough 2-inch squares with a large knife. Cover with plastic wrap.

  • Brown the turkey pieces in a large pot or Dutch oven. This will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Add vegetables and broth to the pot. Common vegetables used in turkey stew include carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes. Chicken broth or turkey broth can be used for the liquid.
  • Season the stew with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices. Common seasonings for turkey stew include thyme, sage, and rosemary.
  • Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the turkey is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. This will typically take about 1 hour.
