battlemaiden Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Do I need to cook the turkey breast before adding it to the crockpot? I've only ever made turkey or chicken soup using an already oven-cooked carcass. Can I just add the onions, celery, carrots, and raw turkey breasts with the broth and let that puppy cook all day? :bigear: :bigear: :bigear: I'm a loser cook. :D And I'm trying to stay off of the computer during Holy Week, so please answer! Thanks. Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXMary2 Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Maybe it is because I just read the "Creepiest Children's Books Ever" thread.....but when I saw the first part of your title "I have turkey breasts"......I burst out laughing. That's all. Carry on.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 I would cook the turkey separately and add at the last ten minutes of cooking the soup. IME it gets kind of dry otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, cube it or get it into otherwise bite-sized chunks and brown it a bit in a skillet. I'd use a little butter or oil and some seasoning (even if just garlic salt). It will taste better than if it's just boiled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
