Directions

Step 1

Cut the turkey breast into bite-sized cubes and season them with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the turkey cubes and brown them on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the turkey from the pot and set aside.

Mince the garlic and add it to the onion, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

Step 7

Pour in the chicken broth and add the browned turkey back into the pot.

Step 8

Add the dried thyme, dried rosemary, and bay leaf to the stew.

Step 9

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 40 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and the turkey is cooked through.

Step 10

Add the frozen green peas and let them cook for an additional 5 minutes.

Step 11

Remove the bay leaf and discard it.

Step 12

Finely chop the fresh parsley and stir it into the stew just before serving.

Step 13

Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.

Step 14

Serve the turkey stew hot, with crusty bread or a side salad if desired.
