Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tbsp. olive oil
1 1/2 c. frozen pearl onions
3 medium carrots, sliced 1/3 inch thick
2 small garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/3 c. chopped parsley
3 tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 1/2 c. chicken broth
1 c. milk
1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 1/2 c. shredded leftover roasted turkey breast meat
1 c. frozen peas
1 tsp. finely chopped sage, plus 6 whole leaves
6 sheets phyllo, thawed
Olive oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Add frozen onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, then add carrots and garlic. Cook until onions are brown and carrots are just tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in parsley and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Sprinkle vegetables with flour and cook, stirring, until flour turns golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add broth, milk, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste; then increase heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring frequently, until mixture thickens, about 6 minutes. Stir in turkey, peas, and chopped sage. Evenly divide mixture among six 1-cup ramekins.
  • Place 1 phyllo sheet horizontally on a work surface lightly sprayed with olive oil cooking spray. Cut vertically into 3 pieces, then stack. Cut in half to create 2 squares, stack again, then place a sage leaf between top 2 layers. Top 1 potpie with phyllo squares and lightly spray with olive oil cooking spray. Repeat for remaining 5 phyllo sheets. Place potpies on a baking sheet and bake until bubbling and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

LEFTOVER TURKEY & FIXIN' PHYLLO PACKETS



Leftover Turkey & Fixin' Phyllo Packets image

One year when I was a kid, my great-aunt Helen visited us for Thanksgiving. I have this memory of her and my mom in the kitchen having fun creating a clever way to "re-package" thanksgiving leftovers. I couldn't have been older than 6 or 8 years old but my mom never tried it again. As an adult the memory stuck with me and here is how it came out...its so easy! And you can substitute the ingredients with whatever left-overs suit your taste.

Time 25m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (16 ounce) package frozen phyllo dough, thawed
1 1/2 cups chopped turkey, leftover
3/4 cup prepared stuffing, leftover
3/4 cup potato, leftover mashed
1/2 cup green beans, leftover casserole
1/2 cup gravy, leftover
1/2 cup butter, melted

Steps:

  • Mix together the turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, and gravy in a large bowl.
  • Cut the stack of Phyllo Dough in half both directions, creating four stacks of rectangles. Start with one rectangle, covering the rest with a damp towel to keep moist as you work. Brush melted butter on the first sheet. Repeat this process with two additional sheets. Place a large scoop of the leftover mixture to the center and fold over edges to seal in a rectangle shape. Be careful not to over fill and seal well. Repeat this process until you have used up all of your leftover mixture.
  • Place the phyllo packages on baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 15-17 minutes, or until flaky and golden brown.
  • You can make these in any size or shape with any mixture of leftovers desired. Also, they are freezable for up to 2 months.

What a great way to have your leftover turkey, chicken, ham or anything else leftover. It looks beautiful and tastes ever so good. I serve this with a fresh green salad and that's it. Try this for a bridge luncheon or company dinner. Depending on the appetites cut the pie accordingly. This recipe was originally from Appeal Magazine

This is a great recipe for using up Thanksgiving Day leftovers with just a few extra ingredients. I leave out the potatoes since we've usually had enough potatoes since Thanksgiving dinner. You may want to add a few cooked and diced.
