ingredients
directions
Melt butter in a large pot over medium-low heat. Add onions, carrots and celery, season with salt and pepper and cook until onions are softened and beginning to brown, 10-12 minutes. Add garlic and thyme and continue to cook 2 minutes more. Pour in wine and cook, stirring frequently until mostly evaporated, about 2 minutes.
Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, until golden and toasted, 3-4 minutes.
Slowly stir in chicken broth. Add potatoes and shredded turkey to pot. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cook, until potatoes are tender and stew begins to thicken, 15 minutes.
Stir in frozen peas, bring back to a simmer, and continue to cook until peas are tender, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in heavy cream, chopped parsley and chives, if using. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper if needed.
Serve with warm biscuits or rolls.
