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.

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.

CREAMED TURKEY WITH SWEET POTATO BISCUITS



Creamed Turkey With Sweet Potato Biscuits image

Though this saucy, savory creamed turkey is designed for using Thanksgiving leftovers, it can be made any time of year. It's a dish that fans of biscuits and gravy will appreciate. These biscuits are a good way to use up leftover sweet potato (or you could bake sweet potatoes for this purpose), but the turkey would also be delicious with plain freshly baked fluffy buttermilk biscuits.

Categories     main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 ounces sausage meat, preferably breakfast sausage or sweet Italian sausage
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups whole milk, more as needed
1 cup leftover gravy or 3/4 cup chicken broth
Salt and pepper
Pinch of cayenne
2 cups diced cooked turkey meat
2 cups/260 grams all-purpose flour, more as needed
2 teaspoons/6 grams baking powder
1/2 teaspoon /1 1/2 grams baking soda
1 teaspoon/3 grams kosher salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup mashed sweet potato
1/2 cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat, cook sausage meat, breaking it into small crumbly pieces as it browns. Pour off any rendered fat. Add butter and diced onion and cook, stirring, until onion is softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle mixture with flour and stir to combine.
  • Add milk 1/2 cup at a time, stirring vigilantly as the sauce thickens. Reduce heat if sauce is bubbling too rapidly. Whisk in gravy or broth and season with salt, pepper and cayenne. Fold in turkey meat and heat through. Keep warm.
  • Make the biscuit dough: Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a mixing bowl. Add butter and work it into the dry mixture with fingers until mixture resembles wet sand. Beat sweet potato and buttermilk together and stir into flour mixture. Mix briefly just enough to incorporate to make a soft dough.
  • Transfer dough to a work surface and dust lightly with flour. Knead for 1 minute, then pat or roll dough to a 1 1/2-inch thickness. Use a floured biscuit cutter or water glass to cut 10 to 12 rounds from the dough. (Or simply use a sharp knife to cut dough into 2-inch squares or diamonds.) Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until golden.
  • To serve, split a warm biscuit and spoon saucy turkey over it.

BEST CREAMED TURKEY WITH THYME BISCUITS



Best Creamed Turkey With Thyme Biscuits image

I love creamed turkey but always hated gravy in it. My mom use to make this and since then I have added a few of my touches. My biscuits is what makes it so good along with the sherry wine that warms up the sauce.

Provided by SarasotaCook

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups turkey (or chicken shredded or chopped)
2 1/4 cups milk
1/3 cup sherry wine
2 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon salt (to taste)
1 teaspoon ground black pepper (to taste)
2 1/2 cups Bisquick
3/4 cup milk (I always go a bit less to start, you can always add more)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup white cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped as a garnish

Steps:

  • Sauce -- It in medium size pot, melt the butter and add the chicken until well heated through, 5 or so minutes on medium heat. Add the flour and mix to combine well. Add the milk, sherry, thyme, salt and pepper and stir until well mixed and cook on medium until the sauce becomes thick. Reduce to low while you make the biscuits.
  • Note: if you like the sauce thicker go a bit shy of the milk or just the opposite you want it thinner or more sauce -- just add more milk.
  • Biscuits -- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, add the bisquick, milk, thyme, cheddar and pepper and mix well. On a cookie or baking sheets lined with parchment or sprayed with pam drop spoonfuls of the mix on the pan. I like a couple of spoonfuls per biscuit. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown.
  • Serving -- Slice in half on your plate and serve the creamed turkey on top. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve this with a nice green vegetable like broccoli rabe which could be roasted right along with the biscuits. Comfort food doesn't get much better.
