Description

Transform leftover turkey or chicken into a comforting French-style fricassee. This hearty dish features tender meat simmered in a rich, creamy sauce made with butter, flour, and fresh herbs. Served alongside fluffy, egg-enriched hot biscuits and tangy pickled beets, it makes for a satisfying meal that uses every bit of your roast.

Directions

  1. Heat 2-3 tablespoons of melted butter or turkey/chicken fat in a large frying pan over medium-low heat.
  2. Add the thinly sliced onion and diced celery to the pan.
  3. Cook the vegetables for 5-8 minutes, stirring often, until softened but not browned.
  4. Add the diced cooked turkey or chicken to the pan and cook for another 5 minutes to heat through.
  5. In a separate saucepan, melt 3 tablespoons of butter or fat over medium heat.
  6. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to brown the roux slightly.
  7. Gradually whisk in the water until smooth, then stir in the savory, salt, and pepper.
  8. Simmer the sauce until it thickens and becomes creamy.
  9. Stir in the 1/4 cup of cream and any remaining turkey or chicken gravy.
  10. Pour the creamy sauce over the turkey and vegetables in the frying pan.
  11. Simmer the mixture gently for 15 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
  12. While the hash simmers, preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  13. Sift together 2 cups flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl.
  14. In a separate bowl, mix 3/4 cup cream with 2 beaten eggs.
  15. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix just enough to moisten; the dough should remain soft and lumpy.
  16. Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto a greased cookie sheet.
  17. Bake the biscuits for 16 minutes or until golden brown.
  18. Serve the hot turkey hash alongside the fresh biscuits and pickled beets.
