Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour 30 minutes
Servings 6 people

Ingredients

  • 4-6 cups diced turkey pre-cooked
  • 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • Kosher Salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • garlic powder
  • celery salt
  • 5 cups Chicken Stock preferably homemade
  • 8 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 1 medium Yellow Onion chopped
  • 3 Garlic cloves minced
  • 3 stalks Celery diced
  • 1/3 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/3 cup cognac or brandy optional
  • 2 cups Medium-Diced Carrots 4 carrots
  • 1 10-ounce package Peas (frozen, 2 cups, not defrosted)
  • 1 ½ cups Small Whole Onions frozen, not defrosted
  • ½ cup Fresh Parsley minced
  • 1 Tbsp. Fresh thyme minced
  • 1 sheet Puff Pastry frozen, defrosted in the fridge
  • 1 Egg Mixed with 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Dice the turkey into ¾ inch cubes. You should have between 4 to 6 cups of diced turkey.
  • In a small saucepan, heat the chicken stock until steaming. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter and sauté the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic over medium heat for 5 minutes, until translucent. Deglaze with cognac and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the flour and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Add the hot chicken stock mixture and simmer over low heat for one minute, stirring constantly, until thick. Add 2 teaspoons salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, and the cream. Stir in the turkey, peas, onions, thyme and parsley. Taste and add any additional seasonings to your taste. Spoon into a rectangular baking dish and place the dish on a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil.
  • Unfold a sheet of puff pastry on top of the turkey and vegetable mixture and cut the pastry to fit the dish. Cut 3 slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape. Brush the pastry with the egg wash and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the pastry is browned and the stew is bubbly and hot. Serve hot.
