Turkey Ginger Noodle Soup https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/turkey-ginger-noodle-soup/ Fri, 17 Jan 2025 20:28:52 +0000 https://www.tasteofhome.com/?post_type=recipe&p=2098753

Ingredients

  • 2 medium carrots, sliced
  • 2 cans (8 ounces each) sliced water chestnuts, drained
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons minced fresh gingerroot
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 4 cups chicken stock
  • 1 can (11.8 ounces) coconut water
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 pounds boneless skinless turkey breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 teaspoons pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 cup frozen corn (about 5 ounces), thawed
  • 1 cup frozen peas (about 4 ounces), thawed
  • 8 ounces rice noodles or thin spaghetti

Directions

  1. Place the first 8 ingredients in a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker.
  2. Toss turkey with pepper and salt. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown turkey in batches. Add to slow cooker.
  3. Cook, covered, on low 4-5 hours, until carrots are tender. Stir in corn and peas; heat through.
  4. Cook noodles according to package directions; drain. Add to soup just before serving.
Test Kitchen Tips
  • Switch up your veggies by using whatever you have on hand in place of the corn and peas. However, the more you add the less stock remains at the end so if you wish it loaded with vegetable add more stock or less noodles.
  • This soup is equally as good prepared with chicken instead of turkey.
  • If you know you're not going to eat this soup in one sitting, it's best to cook the noodles in a separate pan and store them separately. Otherwise, they'll soak up all the liquid and pretty much fall apart.
  • Health Tip: Research supports the idea that chicken noodle soup can help you feel better faster. This turkey soup can do the same and more because ginger can help soothe an upset stomach as well.

    Turkey Corn Chowder Tips

    What are some variations of this turkey corn chowder recipe?

    If you have it on hand, you can use cubed chicken in place of the turkey. Rotisserie chicken would work great here, too! Try adding sliced bell peppers or even some minced garlic to the veggie mixture.

    How do you store turkey corn chowder?

    Store turkey corn chowder in the refrigerator for up to four days. Soups like this one, which contain milk and cream, don’t hold up well in the freezer. Chilis and other broth-based soups are great options if you’re looking for soups you can freeze. But you’ll love creamy soups like this one so much that you won’t have leftovers, anyway!

    How do you reheat turkey corn chowder?

    You can microwave it, but for the best results, reheat turkey corn chowder on the stovetop and adding milk to the mixture if necessary. Next, try more of our chowder recipes!

    Slow-Cooker Turkey Chili Tips

    Can you put raw ground turkey in a slow cooker?

    We wouldn’t recommend it. Browning the turkey in a skillet before adding it to the slow cooker creates a rich flavor that adds depth to the dish. Learn more in our ultimate guide to chili.

    Can you substitute ground beef for ground turkey in chili?

    Absolutely! Ground beef and ground turkey can be exchanged, pound for pound, in chili. If you need inspiration, check out our all-time best chili recipes.

    Can you slow cook turkey chili for too long?

    Yes. If left in the slow cooker for longer than the recommended cooking time, turkey chili will start to break down. Specifically, the veggies and beans will become mushy and unappetizing. You also run the risk of burning the chili.

    What are some additional toppings for slow-cooker turkey chili?

    In addition to sour cream and cilantro, serve this slow-cooker turkey chili with crushed corn chips, cheddar cheese or jalapeno slices. Next to your bowl, consider these tasty chili sides, too.
