Turkey Cobbler Recipe: The Perfect Comfort Food

Ingredients

• 0.5 pound bulk pork sausage
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 cup chopped fresh mushrooms
• 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon dried sage
• kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 0.67 cup heavy cream
• 2 cups chopped cooked turkey
• 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1.5 cups heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons salted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon minced fresh chives
• 0.13 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish, and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook and crumble the sausage for about 5 to 7 minutes until browned. Transfer the sausage to a plate, setting it aside while keeping the drippings in the skillet.
3. Melt the reserved sausage drippings with 3 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and mushrooms, cooking until softened, about 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1/4 cup of flour and cook for 2 minutes, allowing the mixture to thicken. Gradually stir in the chicken broth, ensuring flour lumps dissolve, and cook until bubbling, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and mix in the sage, salt, and pepper.
4. Stir in the heavy cream, reserved sausage, turkey, and mixed vegetables. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed, then pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
5. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt for the topping. Gradually stir in 1 cup of heavy cream, adding the remaining cream as needed to form a moist, sticky dough.
6. Drop large spoonfuls of the dough evenly over the meat and vegetable mixture, spacing approximately 15 to 16 dough balls in total.
7. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, parsley, chives, and garlic powder. Lightly brush the mixture over each dough ball. Place the baking dish on the prepared baking sheet.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
9. Remove the turkey cobbler from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack for approximately 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
