Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 5 1/2 cups

Ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil
Neck, heart, gizzard and wing tips reserved from 14-pound turkey
4 medium carrots, peeled, chopped
3 medium celery stalks, chopped
2 large onions, chopped
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 bay leaves
5 1/2 cups (or more) canned low-salt chicken broth
1 1/2 cups medium-dry Sherry
1 cinnamon stick
1 teaspoon whole cumin seeds
1 teaspoon whole coriander seeds

Preparation

  1. Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Pat neck, heart, gizzard and wing tips dry; add to pan and sauté until evenly browned, about 15 minutes. Add carrots, celery, onions, marjoram, thyme and bay leaves. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. Add 5 1/2 cups chicken broth, Sherry, cinnamon stick, cumin and coriander. Bring to simmer, cover partially and cook 1 hour to blend flavors, stirring occasionally. Strain turkey stock; discard solids in strainer. Spoon off fat. Season stock to taste with salt and pepper. Add more chicken broth if necessary to equal 5 1/2 cups liquid. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool slightly. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled.)
