Wild Turkey Gumbo image

This is a great recipe for a hearty soup. You can substitute tame turkey for wild turkey and still call it wild turkey gumbo because of the wild rice. You can add more kick by increasing the spices or less kick by decreasing them.

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup wild rice
water to cover
2 teaspoons Celtic sea salt, divided
3 quarts chicken broth, divided
2 tablespoons coconut oil
3 cups cubed wild turkey breast, or more to taste
1 large onion, chopped
2 large carrots, quartered lengthwise and sliced
4 stalks celery, chopped
1 pound bag frozen okra
1 teaspoon white pepper
¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons chopped jarred jalapeno peppers
1 teaspoon hot sauce (such as Texas Pete®)

Steps:

  • Place wild rice in a bowl and pour in enough water to cover; soak 4 hours to overnight. Drain rice.

Cook and stir turkey, onion, carrots, and celery in the hot oil until turkey is cooked through and vegetables are slightly tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Add okra to turkey mixture and cook until okra is thawed, 5 to 7 minutes; season with 1 teaspoon salt, white pepper, and black pepper.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my gumbo turned out bland. I think I might have used too much water.

This gumbo is a bit spicy for my taste, but it's still really good. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.
