Open in Pepper →Turkey Earns Its Second Dinner
Leftover turkey or a pound of ground turkey both end up in the same place: a pot on the stove that feeds everybody without much fuss. The bones make broth, the meat stretches, and one bird turns into two or three dinners.
Cooks on Pepper reach for this collection the week after a holiday, when the fridge is full of turkey, and on plain weeknights when ground turkey is what's thawed.
Every recipe here is a real pot of soup or chili — Turkey Chili with kidney and black beans, Crockpot Turkey Chili you start in the morning, Turkey Noodle Soup with butter, onion and celery, Smoked Turkey Soup, and a wild rice and turkey soup with green beans.
Quick Tips
- 1
Simmer the carcass first
Cover the picked-over bones with water, add an onion half and a couple carrots, and simmer 2 to 3 hours for broth with real body.
- 2
Brown ground turkey hard
Cook the turkey in a hot pot 6 to 8 minutes without stirring much so it browns instead of steaming, then add onion and pepper.
- 3
Add noodles at the end
Stir egg noodles in during the last 8 to 10 minutes so they stay firm and don't soak up all your broth.
- 4
Cook wild rice separately
Wild rice takes 45 to 50 minutes and turns the broth murky; cook it on the side and spoon it into bowls.
