Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter, or to taste
  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 stalk celery, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth, or more to taste
  • 1 cup 1% milk
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 3 ½ cups cooked wild rice

Directions

Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground turkey in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat. Drain and discard grease.

Step 2
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; stir in carrots, onion, celery, and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 10 minutes.

Step 3
Add broth, milk, parsley, thyme, and pepper. Stir in turkey and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes. Stir in rice and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.

Cook’s Note:

You can use margarine or a butter substitute in place of butter.
