Crock Pot Turkey Wings With Cream Of Mushroom Ingredients

  • 3 pounds turkey wings, cleaned and patted dry
  • 4 tablespoons turkey dry rub (homemade or store-bought poultry seasoning)
  • ½ cup onion, chopped
  • 10 ounces cream of mushroom soup, canned
  • 3 cups turkey broth (or chicken broth)
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream
  • ½ cup water (for slurry)

How To Make Crock Pot Turkey Wings With Cream Of Mushroom

  1. Prep the turkey wings: Rinse turkey wings, remove pinfeathers, and pat dry. Rub all over with seasoning. Refrigerate uncovered on a baking sheet for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for deeper flavor).
  2. Make the base: In your slow cooker, whisk together chopped onion, cream of mushroom soup, and turkey broth. Add the bay leaf.
  3. Add and cook the wings: Place seasoned turkey wings into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 3–4 hours or low for 4–5 hours, until wings are tender and reach 165°F internally.
  4. Separate and strain juices: Remove wings and set aside. Discard bay leaf. Strain cooking juices through a fat separator and pour defatted liquid into a saucepan.
  5. Make the gravy: In a jar, mix heavy cream, water, and cornstarch. Shake until smooth. Bring juices to a boil and whisk in the slurry. Simmer until thickened, about 2–3 minutes.
  6. Serve: Pour gravy over the wings or serve on the side in a gravy boat.

    Substitute milk for some or all of the heavy cream.
  • What can I use instead of a fat separator?
