TURKEY POT ROAST -- A very tasty alternative to beef (and also easier to make because you don't have to brown the meat first).
Note: You’ll need a large, oval 4-qt.-or-larger crock pot in order for the drumsticks to fit inside.
4 turkey drumsticks
1/4 cup olive oil
2 packs Lipton Onion Soup Mix
1/3 to 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
1-1/2 cups chicken stock
Whole peppercorns
5 cups mixed vegetables, chopped into fairly large pieces --
potatoes, yams, onions, carrots, celery, bell peppers, broccoli, etc., as you prefer
12 whole garlic cloves, peeled
DIRECTIONS
Arrange the drumsticks in alternating directions in the crock pot. Drizzle with the olive oil.
Toss the vegetables in on top of the meat.
Sprinkle in two packages of Lipton's Onion Soup Mix and throw in a small handful of whole peppercorns. Add the chicken stock.
Cover and cook on the high setting for 2-3 hours. The time will depend on your crock pot and the size of the drumsticks.
During the last hour, slowly sprinkle in some of the flour; let moisten, then gently mix in. Add about 1/8 cup at a time. You may not need all the flour depending on how thick you like the sauce. (Note that it will thicken more as it continues to cook.)
Once you have added in the flour, use a pair of tongs to lift the drumsticks up and place them on top of the vegetables. Cover and continue to cook until the turkey is done. You can check for doneness by pulling back the meat on one of the drumsticks with a fork. When the meat falls right off and it's nice and brown all the way to the bone, it's done.
When done, arrange the drumsticks on a large, deep platter and spoon the vegetables and sauce around and over them or plate individual servings. Serve with brown or wild rice.
