Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make stewed turkey with vegetables in a frying pan? Very simple! Prepare all the necessary products. What part of the turkey is best to use? Any part of the bird works great. This time I have turkey thigh fillet. If you have frozen meat, defrost it first. Read about all the intricacies of proper defrosting in a separate article, link at the end of the recipe.

2. STEP 2

   

   Rinse the turkey, pat dry and cut into equal-sized pieces.

3. STEP 3

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a thick-bottomed frying pan. Read about how to choose the perfect frying pan, as well as how to choose the right vegetable oil, in separate articles, links at the end of the recipe. Send the turkey to fry. Stirring, cook until golden brown.

   Next, reduce the stove flame to minimum and simmer the turkey under the lid for about 25-30 minutes. The exact time depends on the chosen frying pan, the size of the pieces of meat and the characteristics of your stove. To prevent anything from burning, pour in a little boiling water (30-50 ml will be enough).

   At this time, take care of your vegetables. Peel the onions and carrots. Cut the bell peppers into two parts and remove the middle with the seeds. Rinse everything, dry it and chop it as desired, not very finely.

   Carefully place the finished turkey into a frying pan with high edges, a thick-walled pan, stewpan or cauldron.
