Creating Turkey Wild Rice Soup is simple. Just follow these steps for a delicious result:

1. Sauté Vegetables: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.
2. Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Combine Broth and Rice: Pour in the chicken broth and water, followed by the wild rice. Bring the mixture to a boil.
4. Simmer: Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the wild rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
5. Add Turkey and Peas: Stir in the shredded turkey, frozen peas, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5-10 minutes until heated through.
6. Creamy Option: If you prefer a creamier soup, reduce heat and stir in heavy cream just before serving.
7. Taste and Adjust Seasoning: Taste the soup and adjust salt and pepper as needed.

Now, you have a hearty Turkey Wild Rice Soup that’s ready to enjoy. Each step brings you closer to an incredible meal.
