Crock Pot Turkey Chops Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 lb turkey c
• Kosher salt or seasoned salt, to taste
• Black pepper, to taste
• ½ cup all-purpose flour (plus 1 tablespoon, divided)
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 3 cups turkey stock
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• ¼ teaspoon Creole seasoning
• ½ teaspoon hot sauce
• Cooked rice, for serving

How To Make Crock Pot Turkey Chops

1. Sear the turkey chops: Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season the turkey with salt and pepper, then lightly dredge in ½ cup of flour. Sear both sides until golden, then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
2. Saute the aromatics: In the same skillet, sauté diced onion for 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 1 more minute.
3. Make the roux: Push onions and garlic to one side of the pan. Add butter and sprinkle in 1 tablespoon flour. Stir constantly for 5–8 minutes until the mixture reaches a deep toffee color.
4. Add liquids and seasonings: Whisk in turkey stock until smooth. Bring to a boil, then stir in Worcestershire sauce, Creole seasoning, and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Transfer to slow cooker: Place seared turkey chops in the bottom of the crock pot. Pour the prepared gravy mixture over the top.
6. Slow cook: Cover and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours or until the turkey is tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
7. Serve: Plate turkey chops over cooked rice and spoon gravy over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Recipe Tips

• Can I skip the searing step?
  Searing adds flavor and helps the flour form a rich gravy, so it’s highly recommended.
• How to thicken the gravy:
  If the gravy is too thin after cooking, you can simmer it on the stovetop to reduce and thicken before serving.
• Is this spicy?
  The hot sauce adds a mild kick. Adjust to your taste, or omit for a milder dish.
• Can I use chicken instead of turkey?
  Yes, thin chicken chops will work just as well in this recipe.
• Do I need to flip the chops in the slow cooker?
  No need to flip—just make sure they’re well covered by the gravy.
