Ingredients

• 3 cups Cooked turkey
• 1 Green bell pepper, diced
• 1 Red bell pepper, diced
• 2 medium Carrots, thinly sliced
• 1 cup Frozen peas
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of chicken soup
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 2 cloves Minced garlic
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 2 tablespoons Parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
• 4 servings Cooked white rice, egg noodles, or puff pastry shells (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Melt the butter and sauté the onion and garlic until soft and fragrant, about 3 minutes.

Step 2

Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed onion and garlic mixture, stirring constantly to form a roux. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Step 3

Slowly pour in the chicken broth while stirring to create a smooth, thick sauce. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

In a crock pot, layer the cooked turkey, diced green and red bell peppers, sliced carrots, and frozen peas.

Step 5

Add the cream of chicken soup, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and dried thyme. Stir to combine.

Step 6

Pour the roux mixture from the skillet into the crock pot, and gently stir it into the other ingredients.

Step 7

Cover the crock pot and cook on LOW for 4 hours or on HIGH for 2 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure an even consistency.

Step 8

Once cooked, taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired before serving.

Step 9

Serve hot over cooked white rice, egg noodles, or in puff pastry shells for a classic presentation.
