Smothered Turkey Wings

"I haven't tried this one yet, I'm putting it here for safe-keeping. Looks good, and interesting, and would be good to do when turkey parts go on sale. This recipe is from B.J.'s Market & Bakery in Chicago."

Ingredients
  • 6 turkey wings
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1⁄2 cup butter
  • 2 celery ribs, chopped
  • 1⁄2 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 7 tablespoons flour
  • 6 cups turkey or 6 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups milk
Directions
  1. To make wings: heat oven to 350°; brush wings with vegetable oil and place in a large roasting pan; stir together salt, pepper, garlic powder, poultry seasoning and onion powder in a medium bowl; sprinkle over turkey wings.
  2. Bake until browned, 45-60 minutes.
  3. To make sauce: melt butter in a large heavy saucepan or dutch oven; add celery and onion; cook over medium-low heat until soft but not browned, about 5 minutes; stir in thyme and pepper; cook 1 minute; add flour; cook, stirring constantly, until light brown, about 5 minutes; slowly whisk in broth.
  4. Heat liquid to a boil; reduce heat and simmer uncovered 20 minutes.
  5. Strain sauce through a sieve and return to the saucepan; slowly whisk in milk and stir constantly until sauce returns to a simmer.
  6. Pour sauce over turkey wings; cover and cook until tender, about 1 hour.
