Turkey Stewed in Sour Cream

Turkey stewed in sour cream is a simple, forgiving dish that’s hard to get wrong: a long simmer over low heat keeps the meat tender, and a sour cream sauce with onion and garlic gives it a rich flavor without needing much in the way of spices.

Turkey is a lean meat with less fat than beef or pork, but its fillet is still firm enough to hold together through a long stew instead of breaking apart. Turkey breast cooks faster and turns out more delicate, while thigh meat has a slightly richer flavor and is more forgiving if the dish sits on the stove a bit longer than planned.

Turkey tends to live in chicken’s shadow, but in terms of macros — protein, fat, and carbohydrates — it’s just as good a choice for anyone watching their diet, and in some ways an even better one. Here’s a closer look at what makes up the nutritional profile of different cuts of turkey.

Protein: among the leanest meats around

Skinless turkey breast is one of the cleanest protein sources available in the meat aisle. A 100 g portion delivers roughly 24-29 g of protein alongside a very modest amount of fat. Turkey protein is complete, meaning it supplies the full set of essential amino acids, and it’s easily digested, which is part of why turkey breast is a staple in high-protein diets.
