Harvest Stew

If I can find it, I buy a bone-in turkey breast otherwise a boneless breast will do just fine. You can use legs/thighs if you prefer dark meat. Brown this on both sides in a bit of olive oil in a heavy pan. Remove to a deep cooking pot, then sear 1 each of cubed onion, sweet potatoes, yams, carrots and rutabagas in the same pan. Transfer the veggies to the cook pot and fill pot with free range chicken broth; season with onion powder, Old Bay or another brand of poultry seasoning and parsley.
Bring the pan drippings to slowly up to temperature; once they begin to bubble, add enough flour to make a rue. Add chicken broth and thicken. Once thickened, add to stock pot and simmer stew for several hours. This is an excellent crockpot recipe.
Serve over split, freshly baked grand biscuits. Add cranberry sauce and you've got a hearty meal.
