Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Turkey wings
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large (sliced) Yellow onion
- 2 stalks (chopped) Celery stalks
- 3 cups Chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the turkey wings dry with paper towels, then season them with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Massage the seasonings into the wings to ensure even coating.
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the turkey wings for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the wings from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and chopped celery. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Arrange the seared turkey wings over the onion and celery mixture in the skillet. Pour in the chicken broth, ensuring the wings are partially submerged.
Cover the skillet tightly with aluminum foil or a lid, then transfer it to the oven. Bake for 1.5 hours, or until the turkey wings are tender and cooked through.
Remove the skillet from the oven. Carefully transfer the turkey wings to a plate and cover them with foil to keep warm.
Strain the cooking liquid from the skillet into a measuring cup, discarding the solids. Skim off any excess fat from the surface of the liquid.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
Gradually pour the strained cooking liquid into the roux, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Simmer the gravy for 5-7 minutes until thickened. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the turkey wings hot, drizzled with the homemade gravy, and enjoy!
