LEFTOVER ESSENTIALS: TURKEY A LA KING

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
• 3. Add the butter and olive oil to a large skillet, over medium heat.
• 4. When the butter melts, give the pan a swirl, and add the mushrooms, celery, and yellow onion.
• 5. Cook the veggies, stirring often, until they have softened, about 6 - 8 minutes.
• 6. Chef's Tip: You might want to add a pinch of salt to the ingredients, to get the cooking process started.
• 7. In a small bowl, whisk the flour and chicken stock together.
• 8. Chef's Tip: If you have any leftover turkey gravy this is the perfect dish for it. Just substitute the gravy for the chicken or turkey stock, and reduce the amount of flour to one tablespoon. So yummy.
• 9. Add the liquid to the veggies and stir to combine.
• 10. Add the milk.
• 11. Allow the ingredients to simmer until thickened, about 3 - 4 minutes.

• 14. Simmer until the carrots begin to soften, about 5 - 7 minutes.
• 15. Chef's Note: As the pan is simmering, add a bit of salt and white pepper, to taste. And possibly some of the other spices that I suggested. Make it as spicy, or bland as you wish... After all... You are the chef :-)
