Instructions
1- Sauté the onions and garlic in olive oil until they turn golden, then add the carrots and celery for a quick sauté to build those layers of taste.
2- Next, pour in the broth, tomatoes, cubed potatoes, thyme, and bay leaf, then let everything simmer until the potatoes are tender this is where the magic happens and your stew really comes together.
3- Once that’s done, mix in the diced cooked turkey and thicken the stew by whisking the flour with a bit of broth before adding it back to the pot.
4- Finally, simmer briefly to get that perfect consistency, season with salt and pepper to taste, and finish with a sprinkle of parsley for a fresh touch.

🥕 For the best texture, cut all vegetables to similar sizes so they cook evenly and maintain a pleasant bite in the finished stew
🍗 Use leftover roasted turkey for the deepest flavor – the browned bits and caramelized meat will add incredible depth to your broth
🌿 Fresh thyme makes a noticeable difference in flavor, but if using dried, add it earlier in the cooking process to allow the flavors to fully develop
