Ingredients
- 1 pounds sweet potatoes
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large shallots
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
- 2 celery stalks
- 4 ounce frozen peas and carrots
- 2 2/3 cups turkey or chicken broth
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- black pepper
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- kosher salt
- 2 1/2 cups chopped cooked turkey breast
- 1/4 cup sour cream or full-fat plain yogurt
Instructions
- 1
In a medium-sized saucepan, add the potatoes and pour in enough water to cover them. Season the water with 1 tablespoon of salt, similar to how you would for pasta, and bring it to a boil. Cook for approximately 16 to 18 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- 2
Once cooked, drain the potatoes and return them to the saucepan. Mix in 1/4 teaspoon of salt along with the sour cream, then mash the mixture using a potato masher. Keep the mashed potatoes covered to retain warmth.
- 3
Set your oven to preheat at 375°F, ensuring that the oven rack is positioned in the center.
- 4
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add shallots, parsley, thyme, and sage, and sauté them until they are nearly tender, which should take about 2 to 3 minutes.
- 5
Incorporate the celery into the skillet and continue cooking until all the vegetables are softened, roughly 4 to 5 minutes.
- 6
Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables, turkey, 2 cups of turkey broth, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to blend the flavors.
- 7
In the meantime, mix 2/3 cup of turkey broth with cornstarch in a separate bowl until fully combined. Pour this mixture into the turkey filling and cook over medium-low heat, stirring until it thickens, which should take about 3 to 4 minutes.
- 8
Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully transfer the filling into a deep oven-safe baking dish, measuring 9 x 9 inches, or use four individual deep 8-ounce ramekins if preferred.
- 9
Spread the mashed sweet potatoes evenly over the turkey mixture.

Place the baking dish on a sheet pan and bake for 20 minutes, or until everything is heated through. For an added touch of color, finish by broiling for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
