Instructions

  • Lightly season each side of the turkey with salt. In a large skillet set over high heat add the olive oil and heat for about 30 seconds. Add turkey to the pan and cook each side until it just starts to brown, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from pan and keep warm.
  • In the reserved pan add the garlic and leeks. Give and good stir and cook over high heat for about 2-3 minutes or until they start to brown. Reduce heat to medium and pour in the wine. Give a good stir and leave to cook until the wine has absorbed, about 5 more minutes.
  • Push the leeks to the side of the pan and and add the butter until melted and then add the flour. Stir really well until you have a paste. Gradually start pouring in the chicken stock, whisking as you pour. Continue pouring until you have used all the stock and you have a sauce. Stir the leeks into the sauce.
  • Add the cooking cream and continue stirring. Put the turkey back in the pan coating completely with the sauce. Reduce heat to low, cover and leave to simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • Set heat back to medium, add the parmesan and parsley and stir really well. Serve straight way.
