DOWN HOME TURKEY STEW



Down Home Turkey Stew image

A comforting and delicious "stew" or "soup" (Depending on whether you thicken it or not) that our family has been enjoying for many years. I hope you will enjoy it as well. :) Because the onion soup mix, steak sauce and the beef base contain so much sodium I do not use extra salt in the recipe. You may do so if you choose but please taste the "stew" first before salting. Ground beef can be substituted for the ground turkey.

Categories     Stew

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 -4 tablespoons olive oil
3 large carrots, sliced thin
4 large onions, sliced thin
1 lb ground turkey
water, to just cover ingredients
1 1/3 ounces dry onion soup mix, I use Mrs. Grass
1 1/2 teaspoons beef base
1 teaspoon steak sauce
5 large potatoes, cut in medium cubes
pepper

Steps:

  • In a large pot, saute carrots and onions in olive oil over medium-high heat until onions get tender but do not brown.
  • Add ground turkey and cook until meat is cooked through. Cover with water just until all ingredients are submerged. (If you add too much water you will dilute the broth).
  • Add dry onion soup mix, beef base, steak sauce, potatoes and pepper to taste.
  • Add more water if needed just to cover.
  • Continue cooking over med-high heat until potatoes are done. Enjoy!
  • *You may thicken this if you like with whatever you use to thicken broth with but remember to taste and adjust seasonings if need be.
  • This recipe tastes even better when made a day ahead. :).
  • **Mrs. Grass dry onion soup mix has a different taste variation then Liptons dry onion soup mix so the outcome will taste somewhat different.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of turkey: For a stew, you want a tough cut of meat that will hold up to long cooking times. Good options include turkey thighs, drumsticks, or necks.
  • Brown the turkey before stewing: This will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your stew: This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients. Good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and green beans.
  • Season the stew well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs to taste. You can also add a bit of spice with cayenne pepper or chili powder.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour: This will allow the flavors to meld and the meat to become tender.
  • Serve the stew with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or rice: This will help to soak up the delicious broth.

Conclusion:

Turkey stew is a hearty, comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover turkey from Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious turkey stew that your family and friends will love.
