Put your leftover turkey (or chicken!) to work in this easy Turkey à la King recipe. It's comfort food at its finest: tender chunks of roasted turkey, peas, carrots, celery, all simmered in a white wine cream sauce.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil until shimmering. Add onion, carrot, and celery and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in flour and cook 1 minute. Add wine and cook until thickened, scraping up any browned bits, about 1 minute. Stir in the broth and cream. Cook until the sauce is very thick, about 5 minutes.
Stir in turkey, peas, and lemon juice. Reduce heat to simmer and cook, stirring frequently, until turkey is heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, season to taste with salt and pepper, and garnish with parsley if desired. Serve on toasted bread or biscuits.
Notes
Sherry: Or substitute a light-bodied dry white (such as sauvignon blanc or pinot grigio) that you enjoy drinking. Use more broth instead of the wine, if you prefer.
Chicken broth: Make your own chicken broth or use store-bought. Or substitute turkey broth, if you have it.
