BOWL OF THE WIFE OF KIT CARSON (TURKEY LEG SOUP WITH CHICKPEAS)



Bowl of the Wife of Kit Carson (Turkey Leg Soup With Chickpeas) image

This is the original, from-scratch recipe from Kit Carson's granddaughter, as given to Sam Arnold, original owner of the Fort Restaurant in Denver, Colorado. Adapted from Time-Life Foods of the World. Although there are many versions using cooked chicken and prepared broth, the original uses raw turkey legs and cooks them in seasoned water to make a savory soup. The avocado slices are Arnold's addition, so I have made them optional. If using frozen turkey, defrost thoroughly before cooking. Prep time includes time to soak the chickpeas (garbanzos). Carson City, the capital of Nevada, is named in Kit Carson's honor.

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces dried garbanzo beans, soaked at least 12 hours
2 quarts water
2 (1 1/2-2 lb) raw turkey legs
2 medium onions, peeled and coarsely chopped
1 bay leaf, crumbled
1 tablespoon salt
8 whole black peppercorns
3 tablespoons raw long-grain rice (do not use converted rice)
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano, crumbled
3 tablespoons canned green chilies, drained, seeded and finely chopped
8 ounces monterey jack cheese, cut in 1/4-inch cubes (muenster may be substituted)

Steps:

  • Drain garbanzos well. Do not save water.
  • Place garbanzos in a large pot or Dutch oven.

  • Reduce heat to low, partially cover, and simmer until garbanzos are tender, about 1 hour.
  • Remove garbanzos with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving water.
  • Add turkey legs to the cooking water. If there is not enough liquid to cover, add a little water.

  • Cover tightly and simmer until rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir in garbanzos, turkey and chilies.
  • Simmer just until all ingredients are heated through, 4-5 minutes.
  • Ladle into a serving bowl and top with cheese and parsley.
  • If using avocados, arrange on top.
