Slow Cooker Turkey Osso Buco
(Dairy and gluten free, ACD and vegan option)
Ingredients
2 teaspoons dried thyme
4 large bone-in turkey thighs, skin removed and fat trimmed (approximately 4 pounds)
1 large onion, diced
1 lb frozen crinkle cut carrots (do not thaw!)
4 celery stalks, chopped
8 garlic cloves, minced, divided (this can be reduced if need be)
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes in juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
Season turkey with salt and pepper, and rub all over with thyme. Place in bottom of slow cooker. Add remaining ingredients except for parsley and lemon. Cook on high about 5 1/2 hours until meat falls right off the bone.
Remove turkey and pull meat from the bones. I sliced the meat and put it over risotto cooked in juices from the cooker. Season the sauce in the cooker with salt and pepper and scoop over turkey. Garnish with parsley and lemon peel. Don¹t be shy about the garnish (especially the lemon) because it adds amazing flavor! So delish! Will feed four if served with risotto or a similar side.
