- Brown turkey in the Instant Pot or on a skillet. Add

Remove and set aside. - Deglaze the skillet or Instant Pot by pouring 1/2 unsalted chicken stock and scrub the flavorful brown bits off the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Reserve the flavorful liquid.
- Add
1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pot. Add diced onion. Sauté for roughly a minute until soften. Add minced garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Season with kosher salt and ground black pepper. - Add in chopped celery and carrot. Sauté until the vegetables are slightly browned (roughly 5 – 7 minutes).
- Optional layer seasoning: taste and season with more kosher salt and ground black pepper.

2 bay leaves, a pinch of rosemary, sage and thyme (rub the herbs with your fingers to “activate” them), then sauté for another minute until fragrant. - Add a dash of sherry wine in the pot and deglaze by scrubbing the flavorful brown bits off the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon.
- Add browned turkey quarters, reserved flavorful liquid (if any) and the remaining unsalted chicken stock in the Instant Pot. Place a steamer basket into the pot and add in the halved Yukon gold potatoes.

- Add butter, Parmesan cheese, and milk or cream. Continue mashing and mixing until desired consistency. Season with kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste. For creamier mashed potatoes, use more milk/cream.
- While mashing the potatoes, remove the turkey quarters and set aside. Heat the Instant Pot by pressing Saute. Taste the sauce and season with salt and ground black pepper if necessary.
- Mix
3 tablespoons of cornstarch with2 tablespoons of water and stir the mixture into the turkey gravy one third at a time until desired thickness. - Drizzle the turkey gravy over the turkey quarters and mashed potatoes and serve immediately. Enjoy!

I added tumeric to the spice and it came out very nice. But it takes over 2 hours from prep to table. I will cook it again but only on a time i hsve alot of time.
This was real tasty & will repeat…And the prep time is way off. Give yourself an hour
This came out really good. I agree that it could use some more spices. But the turkey was perfect. Potatoes reallt good and i also made the gravy.
Can i di this with turkey breast
Hi Wendy,
When making substitutions in recipes you may need to alter cooking time.
This is a really great recipe. Super easy. I found that it gets too salty with all the “extra layer of flavor” additions. I like to season the turkey, then brown it for 6 minutes per side. And season at the end if it needs it.
How the hell did anyome get the lid on the pot with the turkey and steam basket?????
