Instant Pot Spanish Turkey Stew

Step 1

Press the Sauté button, use the Adjust button to set it to High, add the olive oil and brown the turkey until golden. Reserve.

Step 2

Press the Cancel button and then the Sauté button to sweat the chopped onion and garlic (I do 5 seconds on speed 5 in Thermie) for 2-3 minutes, stirring regularly.

Step 3

Add the 125 ml dry white wine, 125 ml chicken stock, 3 chopped vine-ripened tomatoes, 40 g almonds, 1 bay leaf, salt and black pepper, stir well (and deglaze at the same time) and sauté for a couple of minutes then blend (or mash with a masher) to achieve a coarse sauce, you want it to have a bit of bite (3 seconds, speed 7 in Thermie). Obviously if you prefer a smooth sauce go for it but, with the almonds, it’s nice to go for a bit of bite. If you don’t have a blender, never mind, the sauce will be nice anyway.

Step 4

Add the sauce and the reserved turkey back to the pot, press the Poultry button: 15 minutes, natural release.

Step 5

Serve with a nice chunk of bread to dip in the sauce unless you're low carb, in which case, it will be lovely with cauliflower rice.

Step 6

In a large frying pan, casserole, cast iron dish or whatever you have really, let’s not get fussy: heat the olive oil on a high heat and brown the turkey until golden. Reserve.

Step 7

Reduce the heat and add the onion and garlic and sweat for a few minutes until golden, stirring regularly.

Step 8

Add the 125 ml dry white wine, 125 ml chicken stock, 3 chopped vine-ripened tomatoes, 40 g almonds, 1 bay leaf, salt and black pepper, stir well and sauté for a few minutes then blend to achieve a coarse sauce, you want it to have a bit of bite (3 seconds, speed 7 in Thermie). Obviously if you prefer a smooth sauce go for it but, with the almonds, it’s nice to go for a bit of bite.

Step 9

Add the sauce and the reserved turkey back to the pot, reduce the heat and let it simmer until the turkey is very tender (this may take anywhere between 30 and 50 minutes), do keep checking.

Step 10

Serve with a nice chunk of bread to dip in the sauce unless you're low carb, in which case, it will be lovely with cauliflower rice.
