Turkey Stew with Peppers and Mushrooms Recipe

Prep time 20 minutes. Cook time 30-35 minutes.

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, sliced, abut 2 cups
  • 2-4 bell peppers of various colors, sliced thinly
  • 2 large cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon hot Hungarian paprika or few dashes cayenne pepper
  • 1 Tbsp Hungarian sweet paprika
  • 1 1/2 to 2 pounds skinless, boneless turkey thigh or breast, cut into large chunks
  • 4 ounces mushrooms, sliced thinly
  • 1 14-ounce can of plum tomatoes with juice
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Salt
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 3/4 cup plain (full fat is best) yogurt

METHOD

1 Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil on high heat in a large sauté pan. Add the onions and peppers and sauté them until they begin to soften and lightly brown. Add the sweet paprika, the hot paprika, and the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more, until the garlic is fragrant. Remove the peppers, onions, and garlic from the pan and set aside.

2 Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil over high heat. Add the mushrooms and the turkey to the pan. Sear the mushrooms and turkey over high heat, stirring often, for 3-4 minutes, until the turkey and mushrooms begin to brown. Reduce the heat to medium, return the peppers-and-onion mixture to the pan and mix well.

3 Squeeze the tomatoes to break them up, and add them with their juices to the pan, along with the Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, rosemary and black pepper. Mix well, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan and simmer for 15-20 minutes.

4 Stir the cornstarch into the yogurt and add to stew. Cook over low heat (do not let simmer or boil), stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens a little.

Serve with rice, polenta, or mashed potatoes.

Serves 4.
