Dinde (Turkey) au Vin

  • 1 large yellow onion, sliced
  • About 3-4 cups of chopped, cooked turkey

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups chicken stock
  • 2 cups red wine
  • 2 bay leaves

Brown the bacon in a pan. Remove bacon and drain on paper towels. Add onions, turkey, and mushrooms, cooking until onions are partially translucent. Add the garlic. Add the stock, wine and herbs.  Dice and return the bacon to the pan. Simmer until the sauce is reduced to a consistency that you like. Serve over pasta or rice or risotto. (Sprinkle with parsley).
