Ingredients:

1 2 pounds bone-in turkey pieces, such as the breast or legs, breasts cut through the bone into large chunks, legs divided into drumsticks and thighs

2 1/2 teaspoon salt

3 1/2 teaspoon pepper

4 1/4 cup vegetable oil

5 2 shallots or onions thinly sliced

6 1/2 cup water

7 1 teaspoon sugar

8 1 teaspoon soy sauce

9 1 tablespoon Sichuan peppercorns

10 Steamed rice for serving

Instructions:

1 Rub the turkey with 1/4 teaspoons each of the salt and white pepper. Choose a large pot with a lid, such as a Dutch oven, and place a steamer rack inside. Fill the pot with 2 cups of water add more as needed. If using a turkey roast, remove the string wrapping and divide it into smaller pieces. Place the turkey on a dish that fits inside the pot and sits atop the steamer rack. (In order to save the turkey drippings, the turkey should not be placed directly on a rack with holes.) Bring water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cover the pot. Steam the turkey until its internal temperature close to the bone reaches 180 degrees, about 30 minutes. Let cool. Reserve the juices and drippings.

2 Once the turkey meat has cooled, pull the meat into bite-size shreds by hand and discard the bones and skin.

3 Heat the vegetable oil in a small pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the sliced shallots and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Reserve the cooking oil.

4 Add into the oil 1/2 cup of the reserved juices and drippings from the steamed turkey. Add the water, sugar, soy sauce, Sichuan peppercorns, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoons each of salt and white pepper. Whisk mixture over medium heat to dissolve sugar. Bring to a gentle boil and simmer, uncovered until reduced by half, about 30 minutes. Strain sauce and discard solids.

5 To serve, scoop rice into individual serving bowls and top with a mound of the shredded turkey meat. Spoon the sauce over each bowl.

Contributors Notes:

Note: To prepare this dish using leftover Thanksgiving turkey meat, skip step 1 and substitute the raw turkey with 2 cups packed, pre-roasted turkey meat and 1/2 cup of its reserved drippings. Originally from https://www.seriouseats.com but I modified to suit myself
