Slow Cooker Smothered Turkey Wings Recipes

Steps:

• Season turkey wings the night before with the seasoning of your choice. I use a mixture of salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder. Refrigerate until morning.
• Arrange cut up vegetables, bay leaves and garlic in bottom of a slow cooker.
• Sprinkle 1 packet of turkey gravy mix on top of vegetables and stir to coat.
• Pour 1/2 cup water over vegetables.
• Place turkey wings on top of vegetables and sprinkle remaining turkey gravy powder over turkey wings.
• Cook the turkey wings in the slow cooker on low before leaving for work in the morning and when you return home in the evening your turkey wings will be tender and simmering in their own rich gravy.
• This is great served over hot white rice.

Steps:

• To make wings: heat oven to 350°; brush wings with vegetable oil and place in a large roasting pan; stir together salt, pepper, garlic powder, poultry seasoning and onion powder in a medium bowl; sprinkle over turkey wings.
• Bake until browned, 45-60 minutes.
• To make sauce: melt butter in a large heavy saucepan or dutch oven; add celery and onion; cook over medium-low heat until soft but not browned, about 5 minutes; stir in thyme and pepper; cook 1 minute; add flour; cook, stirring constantly, until light brown, about 5 minutes; slowly whisk in broth.
• Heat liquid to a boil; reduce heat and simmer uncovered 20 minutes.
• Strain sauce through a sieve and return to the saucepan; slowly whisk in milk and stir constantly until sauce returns to a simmer.
• Pour sauce over turkey wings; cover and cook until tender, about 1 hour.
