 Southern Cajun-Influenced Turkey Wings | Status Approved | | Name | Southern Cajun-Influenced Turkey Wings | | Category | Poultry | | Serves/Yields | 4 | | Source | My Honey, Ralph and My Mom-in-Law | | Difficulty | Easy | | Prep. Time | 10 mins. | | Cook Time | 45-60 mins. | | Introduction | | The first time my Ralph brought these home from his moms and told me what they were, I was unimpressed because I am not a great lover of Turkey, generally; and of wings, especially! But, By yimminy! They were pretty good!
So I put a little of my Dad's natural Cajun twist on them and they were even better!! It was the first compliment I got from his Mom in 6 years!!!!! Ralph even said they were way better , shoot! even I Loved them! Hope you do, too! | | Ingredients | | For dinner for 4: Have your meat clerk at the supermarket or at the meat mart or your butcher prepare 8-10 Turkey Wings by cutting them EVENLY in HALF. You will not believe how inexpensive these are!
Olive or a blended oil to just cover the wings
2 cans good quality Cream of Chicken Soup (10 3/4 oz cans)
3 heaping Tablespoons Cajun seasoning (the Red kind, not the Blackened kind) (I use Cajun Classiques from Spice World Seasonings out of Orlando)
1/8 tsp. each coarse ground black pepper and sea salt
1/2 cup sliced celery , rinsed and drained AND 1 small onion , sliced into rings | | Directions | | Step: 1 | In a large bowl, toss wings with oil, salt & pepper, and Cajun seasoning. Brown in (preferably a cast iron or non-stick pan) until Medium Brown on both sides.
Arrange in a 13x9 (preferably glass) lasagna pan and sprinkle celery and separated onion rings evenly over all wings. | | Step: 2 | Gently cover entire pan with the cans of cream of chicken soup.
Cover lightly with foil and Bake at 350o for 45 to 60 minutes minutes; checking doneness by picking up a wing section and having it slide easily off the fork. | | Nutrition Information | | Turkey is naturally low in fat, and has a decent amount of Triptophane so you can eat like a Southerner, be lulled into a nap and never have a guilty moment in-between!! | | Menu suggestion | | We have a 2-vegetable 1-starch rule in my house, therefore, I will usually make a big bowl of collard, turnip or mustard greens (served with Nakano Vinegar!) mmmmm.
A bowl of either white rice or mashed potaoes (no gravy, just sour cream or low-fat spread) and the ever-present sweet potatoe or butternut squash chunks served with a decent helping of Mrs. Dash and Butter Buds-gotta watch it at our ages!
Dessert- Jello and whipped cream or our favorite Sorbet.

I love wings. I bet this would be a great crock pot recipe if cooked on low. |
