Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Cook Time: 180 Minutes
Ready In: 210 Minutes
Servings: 8
Ingredients:
5 1/2 pounds turkey wings neck, heart, and gizzard reserved from turkey
12 cups low-salt chicken broth
3 large carrots, cut into chunks
3 large celery stalks, chopped
2 medium onions, quartered
2 medium whole leeks (including dark green parts), split lengthwise, rinsed, chopped
stems from 2 bunches parsley
6 large fresh thyme sprigs
3 turkish bay leaves
Directions:
1. Place turkey wings and neck, heart, and gizzard in large pot. Add all remaining ingredients; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer gently until gizzard is tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Using tongs, transfer neck, heart, and gizzard to plate; reserve. Discard wings. Strain stock and spoon off fat from surface. Measure stock and, if necessary, boil until reduced to 81/2 to 9 cups. DO AHEAD: Can be made 3 days ahead. Cool 1 hour. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled. Wrap and chill turkey neck, heart, and gizzard separately for making gravy.
