This casserole from the Mayo Clinic is a great option for serving up leftovers after a large turkey or chicken dinner. To make it a meal, serve with a tossed salad or steamed peas and carrots.

TURKEY OR CHICKEN STOVE-TOP CASSEROLE OVER TOAST

Serves 4

Ingredients

11/2 c. chicken broth

1/2 c. diced celery

1/3 c. diced onions

1/2 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped

2 c. cooked turkey or chicken, cubed

3 T. all-purpose (plain) flour

3 T. white wine

1/2 c. chopped fresh parsley

2 T. fresh rosemary (optional)

Ground black pepper, to taste

4 slices toast

Directions

In a large nonstick saucepan, heat 1/4 cup of the chicken broth over medium-high heat until it simmers. Add the celery, onions and bell pepper, and cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, allowing the mixture to cool slightly.

In a medium bowl, add the turkey or chicken cubes and flour. Toss gently until the flour coats the meat. Add to the vegetables and broth, cooking over low heat for about 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium high and slowly add the remaining broth, wine, parsley, rosemary and black pepper. Cook and stir until the sauce thickens slightly. To serve, spoon 1/4 of the casserole over each piece of toast.
