ROAST TURKEY WITH CORN BREAD AND KALE STUFFING AND PAPRIKA GRAVY
Steps:
- Make the stuffing:
- In a large skillet cook the onions and the celery with salt and pepper to taste in butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until the vegetables are softened. Add the kale in batches, stirring until each batch is wilted, and cook the mixture until the kale is bright green. In a bowl combine the mixture with the corn bread, stir in the sage and salt and pepper to taste, and toss the stuffing gently until it is combined well. Let the stuffing cool. The stuffing may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. (To prevent bacterial growth, do not stuff the turkey in advance.)
- Rinse the turkey inside and out, pat it dry, and season it with salt and pepper. Pack the neck cavity loosely with some of the stuffing, fold the neck skin under the body, and fasten it with a skewer. Pack the body cavity loosely with some of the remaining stuffing and tie the drumsticks together with kitchen string. Transfer the remaining stuffing to a buttered baking dish and reserve it, covered and chilled. Spread the turkey with 1/2 stick of the butter, season it with salt and pepper, and roast it on a rack in a flameproof roasting pan in a preheated 425°F oven for 30 minutes. In a saucepan melt the remaining 1 stick butter and let it cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F., baste the turkey with the pan juices, and drape it with a piece of cheesecloth, soaked in the melted butter. Roast the turkey, lifting the cheesecloth and basting the turkey every 20 minutes, for 2 1/2 to 3 hours more, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the fleshy part of a thigh registers 180°F and the juices run clear when the thigh is pierced with a skewer. During the last hour of roasting bake the reserved stuffing, drizzled with the stock and 1/2 cup of the pan juices and covered loosely. Discard the cheesecloth and the trussing string, transfer the turkey to a heated platter, reserving the juices in the roasting pan, and let it stand, covered loosely with foil, for 25 minutes.
- Make the gravy:
- Skim all but 1/3 cup of the fat from the roasting pan, add the flour to the pan, and cook the roux over moderate heat, whisking, for 3 minutes. Add the paprika and cook the mixture for 30 seconds. Add the stock in a stream, whisking, bring the mixture to a boil, whisking, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer the gravy, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes and transfer it to a heated sauceboat.
- Garnish the turkey with the kale leaves and the paprika leaves.

Steps:
- Add butter to Instant Pot, turn to saute' until hot. Mix flour, salt, pepper and paprika on a plate. Dip chicken breasts in seasoned flour, coating well.

Return chicken to pot and pour chicken broth to cover. Lock lid, set to high, and cook 8 minutes. Let pressure release naturally 10 minutes before quick releasing remaining pressure and safely removing the lid. Use tongs to set aside chicken breasts. Make sauce by using saute' setting on high with the lid off, and wait until cooking liquid is simmering. Thoroughly combine sour cream and cornstarch, then slowly stir into simmering liquid until fully integrated and sauce is creamy and thick. Salt and pepper to taste. Pour some sauce over chicken and serve topped with parsley and a pinch of paprika. Excellent over rice. This is from Bob Warden's "Slow Food Fast" book.
Tips:
- Use a good quality paprika. The better the paprika, the better the gravy will taste. Look for a paprika that is deep red in color and has a strong, smoky flavor.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of paprika. There are many different types of paprika available, each with its own unique flavor. Try out a few different types to see which one you like best.
- Use a roux to thicken the gravy. A roux is a mixture of fat and flour that is used to thicken sauces and gravies. To make a roux, melt some butter or oil in a saucepan and then whisk in some flour. Cook the roux over low heat, stirring constantly, until it is golden brown.
- Add some vegetables to the gravy. Vegetables such as onions, carrots, and celery can add flavor and texture to the gravy. Simply chop the vegetables and sauté them in some butter or oil until they are softened. Then, add them to the gravy and simmer until they are cooked through.
- Season the gravy to taste. Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for gravy. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried herbs. Taste the gravy and adjust the seasonings as needed.
Conclusion:
Paprika gravy is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you are looking for a simple gravy to serve with chicken or a more complex gravy to dress up a roast, paprika gravy is a great option.
