Turkey Osso Buco Recipe
- 4 turkey thighs or drumsticks, cut crosswise (by the butcher) into 1 1/2-inch-thick rounds
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, peeled and chopped
- 1 celery stalk, chopped
- 1 carrot, peeled and chopped
- 2 cups marinara sauce
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth or dry white wine
- A few sprigs of fresh herbs (any combination of parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme)
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- In an uncovered Dutch oven over medium heat, brown the turkey pieces on both sides in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, about 20 minutes. Remove them from the pan; set aside.
- Brown the onion, celery, and carrot in the remaining olive oil until soft, about 5 minutes.
- Return the turkey pieces to the pan and add the mari-nara, broth or wine, and herbs. Simmer in the oven, covered, until the meat is fork-tender, about 1/1/2 hours.
