Leftover Turkey Stew

List of Ingredients






2-3 coarsely chopped large white onions
5-6 cloves minced garlic
1/2 # fresh small mushrooms (or use a can of sliced ones(drained)
1/4 C oil
1/2 C flour
2 C cooking wine
4 C chicken broth
3-4 bay leaves
1-2 t ground black pepper
1 t thyme
1 t rosemary leaves or 3/4 t ground rosemary
1/2 t basil
4 cups leftover Turkey meat
2 T Cornstarch or Tapioca, opt.


Recipe



Sauté the onions garlic and mushrooms in a small amount of oil. In order to cut down on cleanup use the same pot that you will be cooking the stew in.
Remove the garlic onions and mushrooms and set aside.
Turn the heat to LOW. Add the 1/4 C oil and gently stir in the flour little bit at a time . Make sure that the flour is dissolved before you add more, or you will end up with a lumpy goo. Cook for about two or three minutes. The heat must be low or the mixture will burn.
Add the wine, broth and spices. Stir constantly over a medium heat until the mixture thickens. If it doesn't thicken, add 2 T corn starch dissolved in a glass of COLD water. Alternatively, add 2 T tapioca. Simmer for about ten minutes. It will thicken. Add the turkey meat and the mushroom garlic and onion mixture. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes.
Serve on a bed of rice.
