Рецепт Paleo Leftover Turkey Stew (Instant Pot and Stovetop)

by Cavegirl Cuisine

Posted on November 27, 2016 by Cavegirl Cuisine in Soups This Leftover Turkey Stew (Instant Pot and Stovetop) is quick, easy, and also a lighter fare from the Thanksgiving feast you just endured, using some of the same ingredients! So, for my turkey broth…here’s my tradition. For roasting the turkey, I cut a large onion and scatter it in the bottom of my roasting pan. I add about 4 quartered garlic cloves in addition to 2 cups of chicken broth. I then scatter a packet of “poultry herbs”…thyme, sage, rosemary. This creates my “aromatics” base. For my turkey, I melt a stick of butter and brush the insides and out and then simply season it with salt and pepper. I then stuff the inside with sliced apples, oranges, and herbs. I slow cook this tented with aluminum foil for a couple of hours at 200 degrees F. The liquid is usually gone by then. I add another couple cups of liquid and drizzle oil on the bird and crank the temp up to 325. I cook it for another hour. I then remove the foil and crank up the temp to 375. I then baste the turkey every 15 minutes until it reaches 165 degree internal temp. If the wing tips or some spots are getting browned too quickly, I add a few sprigs of thyme over these areas to protect them (and flavor them!). OK…you were interested in the broth ~ I got side-tracked. For the broth, place about 7 cups of water into a large pot. Insert the turkey bones/carcass…and the neck and giblets (or whatever is leftover from any homemade gravy you may have made). Some folks don’t like to include the liver in the broth ~ but I like it. It’s up to you. I also add the aromatics from the bottom of the roasting pan…however, I throw away the apple and orange. Bring to a boil and then simmer lidded for 2 hours. Strain the liquid. Refrigerate covered overnight and then skim the fat layer from the top and discard. You should have some awesome jiggly, tasty broth! Use half…freeze half (for up to 6 months)!
