Try a twist on classic Italian cacciatore with slow-cooked turkey served on a pesto-slathered roll and topped with melty mozzarella.
Ingredients:
  • 1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 4 bone-in turkey thighs (about 3 pounds), skin removed
  • 1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 8 Italian or French rolls, split
  • 1/2 cup basil pesto
  • 8 slices (1 ounce each) mozzarella cheese
Instructions:
  • Coat a 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. Add bell pepper and onion to the cooker, then layer turkey on top. Combine tomato sauce, vinegar, and Italian seasoning in a small bowl; drizzle over the turkey and vegetables.
  • Let it simmer gently on Low heat for 7 to 8 hours, covered.
  • Place the turkey on a cutting board and shred it into thin pieces using 2 forks, discarding any bones. Return the shredded turkey to the cooker. When ready to serve, spread pesto on the cut sides of the rolls, fill them with the turkey mixture using a slotted spoon, and top with cheese.
