Turkey And Chickpea Moroccan Stew – a colourful combination of leftover turkey, chickpeas, veggies and Moroccan spices. This year I wanted to make something a bit more exotic with the turkey leftovers. So here it is, I made a killer gluten-free turkey and chickpea stew packed with so much flavour. Forget turkey sandwiches!
the Moroccan spices…
In this turkey stew, I used spices such as cumin, chilli pepper, turmeric and cardamom. Then I added chickpeas, tomatoes, collards and a few potatoes.
But the best part, wait for it…raisins. Yes, raisins add a little sweetness and are what make this stew beyond amazing!
This Moroccan-inspired recipe is a rich and generously spiced stew using leftover turkey. I love turkey meat because it is healthy, lean and very flavourful.
30-minute Moroccan-inspired stew…
To make this Moroccan stew, you will need only one pot and 30 minutes from start to finish. An easy gluten-free dinner recipe for an easy weeknight meal using turkey leftovers.
What I love about this Moroccan recipe is, if you don’t have turkey leftovers, you can use chicken, and if you are following a plant-based diet, add tofu or nothing at all.
During the Thanksgiving holidays, we often serve turkey. And, there are plenty of leftovers for the next day. Of course, making turkey soup is a must, but if you had a big bird, you would have delicious turkey meat that you can use up in various recipes.
Making this tasty Moroccan turkey stew is a great way to use up those leftovers. This dinner recipe will not disappoint, especially when you serve it with gluten-free pull-apart soft rolls to soak up the delicious stew.
In a large saucepan sauté onions and garlic in olive oil until soft. About 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes, stirring as needed
2.
Add apple cider vinegar, chickpeas with liquid, collard leaves, potatoes, raisins, salt and water. Cover and cook for 15 minutes over medium-low heat until potatoes are fork tender
3.
At the end stir in turkey and just enough gravy to make a thick stew. Cook until heated through. If you don't have gravy, and the stew is too thick add water or chicken broth as needed. The best part, the stew tastes even better the next day
