Inspired by the rustic--and time-consuming--French classic, our cassoulet, made with leftover turkey or chicken and canned beans, makes a simple, hearty supper.
Make Ahead Tip: Prepare through Step 2. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days. |
RECIPE INGREDIENTS
| 1 cup fresh whole-wheat breadcrumbs (see Tip) |
| 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil |
| 2 medium onions, finely chopped |
| 1 medium carrot, finely chopped |
| 2 cloves garlic, minced |
| 1/4 pound turkey kielbasa sausage, thinly sliced |
| 1 14-1/2-ounce can diced tomatoes |
| 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth |
| 1/2 cup dry white wine |
| 2 15-1/2-ounce cans great northern or cannellini beans, rinsed |
| 1 1/2 cups diced cooked turkey or chicken |
| 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme or 1/2 teaspoon dried |
| 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste |
| Freshly ground pepper to taste |
| 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional) |
Tip: To make fresh breadcrumbs: Trim crusts from bread. Tear the bread into pieces and process in a food processor until coarse crumbs form. One slice makes about 1/3 cup. |

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread breadcrumbs on a baking sheet and bake until crisp and light golden, stirring occasionally, 6 to 10 minutes; set aside.
|
Meanwhile, heat oil in a 4- to 6-quart Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions, carrot and garlic; cook, stirring often, until just beginning to color, about 5 minutes. Add kielbasa and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, broth, wine, beans, turkey (or chicken), thyme, salt and pepper; bring to a simmer.
|
Sprinkle the toasted breadcrumbs over the top and transfer the pot to the oven. Bake until browned and bubbling, 25 to 35 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley, if using, and serve.
