Stewed Turkey

Stewed turkey is a doubly healthy dish. Firstly, it is prepared using a dietary and hypoallergenic product. Secondly, the turkey breast is not fried, but stewed. As you know, poultry meat often turns out dry. To avoid this, the turkey should be soaked in kefir before cooking. Then the meat will be juicy and tasty.

How to cook Stewed Turkey

Step 1

Stewed Turkey

Prepare the turkey. Soak the turkey fillet in kefir for an hour, then drain it.

Step 2

Stewed Turkey

Stew the turkey. Fry the pieces of meat in a frying pan with vegetable oil for 10 minutes. Add the onion, salt and pepper. Pour in the water and stir. Stew until the meat is done for about 15 minutes.

Stewed Turkey - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, plain yogurt is a great substitute for kefir as it provides similar tenderizing effects. Just ensure it’s unsweetened and unflavored.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3–4 days in the refrigerator. Reheat thoroughly before serving.
Absolutely! Swap turkey for hearty mushrooms, tofu, or chickpeas, and use vegetable broth instead of water for added flavor.
Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of water or broth over low heat, stirring occasionally to retain moisture.
Yes, stewed turkey freezes well for up to 2–3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat as directed.
Try mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh green salad for a balanced meal. Grains like quinoa or rice also work well.
Yes, chicken thighs or breasts are excellent substitutes. Adjust cooking time slightly as chicken may cook faster than turkey.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes, cayenne, or diced jalapeños while cooking for a spicy kick.
