Cackalackin’ Turkey Pot Roast

Cackalackin’ Turkey Pot Roast – Recipe Serves 4

I LOVE slow cooker recipes! This is one of my favorites – it includes everything you need for the whole meal in one pot. That is pretty cool! This is a 500 calorie complete meal, with very hearty serving sizes.  Note that I did calculate the calories considering the Turkey skin being removed before eating.  This recipe is so easy, and it is sure to impress (your house will smell delicious all day)!

• 4 Turkey Lets
• 5 Large red Potatoes
• 4 Carrots
• 1 Vidalia onion
• 1 leek
• 2 Tablespoons of olive oil
• 2 chopped garlic Cloves
• 1 ½ Cup Chicken Stock
• ¼ cup White Wine
• 1 Tablespoon Fresh Chopped rosemary
• 2 teaspoons Fresh chopped Oregano
• Salt and Pepper to taste
  

1. Chop the garlic, oregano and rosemary. Cover each turkey leg in olive oil, and then rub each turkey leg with garlic, oregano, rosemary, salt and pepper. Only use half of rosemary at this point.
   
   
   
   
2. Heat a skillet over medium high heat, and add the Turkey legs to the skillet. Brown the turkey legs for about 3 minutes on each side.
   
3. While the turkey legs are browning, peel the carrots and onion and cut each into quarters. Peel any brown spots off of the potatoes.
   
4. Place the potatoes, carrots and onions in the crock pot.
   
5. Remove the turkey legs from the skillet and place them on top of the vegetables in the crock pot. Cover the turkey legs with the remaining rosemary.
   
6. Slice the leek as pictured below, and place it on top of the turkey.
   
   
   
   
7. Pour the chicken stock, and the wine around the turkey legs. Do not pour the liquid over the turkey, because it will wash away your spices.
8. Set the crock pot to high and cook for 5 ½ hours.
9. Serve and enjoy!
