Leftover turkey stroganoff
In this leftover turkey stroganoff recipe, simple ingredients come together to make a creamy, hearty dinner that tastes like it came from a restaurant, without the extra effort.
Equipment
- 1 large skillet (with high sides or Dutch oven)
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups Cooked turkey (cubed or shredded)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 12 ounces baby bella mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 onion (finely diced)
- 3 garlic cloves (minced)
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 10.5 oz condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- ½ cup sour cream
For serving:
- 4 cups cooked egg noodles
- Fresh parsley chopped (optional)
Instructions
- If not already done, remove bones from the turkey and cut or shred into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onion, cooking for 3–5 minutes until softened and onions are translucent.
- Stir in the garlic and cook another 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
- Sprinkle in the flour, mixing well. Cook for about a minute, stirring to prevent burning.
Notes
- Turkey can easily be swapped with cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken.
- Fresh meat works too, try turkey tenderloin, chicken breasts or thighs, ground meat, or even beef steak pieces.
- Egg noodles are traditional, but mashed potatoes make a hearty alternative.
- For a different flavor, use cream of mushroom soup or replace the canned soup with heavy cream. If using heavy cream, adjust seasonings to taste since the canned soup adds extra flavor.
- Always stir in the sour cream after removing the pan from the heat. Adding it over high heat may cause curdling.
- If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of broth. If too thin, cook longer to reduce or whisk in a slurry made from 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon cold water. Simmer for 5–10 minutes until thickened.
