By

Ingredients

  • Gravy:
  • 1 pound crimini mushrooms, sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped shallot
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 2 cups Shortcut Turkey Stock
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 5 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh mint

Preparation

Step 1

For gravy:
Scrape juices and browned bits from reserved roasting pan into large glass measuring cup. Spoon off fat, reserving 3 tablespoons.

Heat reserved 3 tablespoons fat in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add crimini mushrooms, garlic, and shallot. Sauté until mushrooms are tender, about 6 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to bowl and set aside. Add wine to skillet. Boil until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 3 minutes. Add reserved 1/3 cup chopped porcini mushrooms, reserved mushroom soaking liquid (leaving any sediment behind), 2 cups stock, and degreased pan juices. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer to reduce slightly, about 10 minutes.

Add cream and crimini mushrooms to skillet. Mix 2 tablespoons water and cornstarch in small bowl until smooth. Whisk into gravy. Continue to simmer until reduced to desired consistency, whisking occasionally, about 5 minutes. Mix in parsley and mint. Season gravy to taste with salt and pepper.
