Ingredients

6 servings

2 Tbsp olive oil
1 lb mushrooms (sliced)
1 small onion (finely chopped)
4 Tbsp unsalted Butter
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour (gluten free flour works well too)
1 1/2 to 2 cups chicken broth ((low sodium))
4 -6 Cups leftover turkey meat (torn into bite-sized pieces)
1/2 tsp sea salt (or to taste)
1/8 tsp ground black pepper (or to taste)
1 Tbsp Parsley to garnish (optional)

Steps

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add 2 Tbsp olive oil and diced onions and sauté until soft and golden (4-5 minutes, stirring frequently). Add mushrooms to the pan and sauté until soft and golden (5-7 min, stirring frequently). Remove mushrooms and onions from pan.
In the same hot pan (no need to wash it), add 4 Tbsp unsalted butter. Once melted, whisk in 3 Tbsp flour. Cook, whisking continually until roux is a golden brown (1 1/2 to 2 min) then whisk in 2 cups chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and season to taste (I added 1/2 tsp sea salt and a pinch of black pepper).
Add add mushrooms/onions back to the pan. Stir in turkey and heat until turkey is just heated through. Garnish with finely chopped parsley if desired.
