What You'll Need
- 4 turkey drumsticks
- Vegetable oil for coating, plus 1 tablespoon for sauteeing
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 12 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 tablespoon dried tarragon leaves
- 1 (28-ounce) can tomatoes, drained and chopped
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
What to Do
- Preheat oven to broil.
- Coat the drumsticks completely with oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the drumsticks in a broiling pan and broil, turning until browned on all sides.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat in a Dutch oven or large skillet; add the onion and garlic and saute until clear. Add the mushrooms and saute for 5 to 6 minutes more, stirring occasionally. Add the wine, tarragon, and tomatoes, stirring to blend. Add the browned drumsticks, cover, and cook over medium-low heat about 1 hour, or until the drumsticks are tender and done, stirring occasionally. Remove the drumsticks from the Dutch oven and place on a serving platter.
- In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and water. Raise heat to high, bring the Dutch oven contents to a boil, drizzle in the cornstarch mixture, and stir until thickened. Spoon over the drumsticks, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve.
