Ingredients
-
2
pounds turkey drumsticks, cut crosswise into 1 1/2 inch thick pieces (ask your butcher to do it unless you have a chain saw, or like to suffer) -
1
finely chopped yellow onion -
2
diced carrots -
2
minced garlic cloves -
8
diced Turkish apricots -
16
dried cranberries, halved -
1
cup hard cider -
1/4
teaspoon allspice
-
1/4
teaspoon cinnamon
-
1/4
teaspoon nutmeg
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
1. Preheat
oven to 325°F.
2. In
a large cast iron casserole or Dutch oven, heat the oil over
medium-high heat. Season the turkey pieces with salt and pepper and
brown them nicely, about two minutes per side.
3. Remove
the turkey from the pan. Add the onion and cook over medium heat,
until the onion is very soft and slightly caramelized, for about
five minutes. Add the garlic, and cook for another minute. Add the
carrots and cook for another five minutes. Stir in the apricots,
cranberries, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg and cider. Place the turkey
pieces back into the casserole, coat with the sauce, and bring to
simmer.
4. Cover
the casserole with a lid and put it in the oven. Cook until the
meat is very tender and begins to fall of the bones, for about 2 to
2 1/2 hours. (If it becomes dry during cooking, feel free to add a
bit more liquid.)
5. Adjust
the seasoning if needed. Serve warm with mashed potatoes and the
sauce spooned on top.
