Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and place a deep cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Prepare diced vegetables as it heats.

  • Add the carrots, parsnips, celery, garlic, and dried thyme to the pan. Stir and cook for 5 minutes.

  • Combine shredded Turkey with sage and add to the pan. Stir well, then pour in the remaining Guinness and bone broth. Bring to a simmer, then lower heat to medium/low. Cook for 15 minutes.
  • When 5 minutes remains for the filling, add potatoes to a piping bag.
  • Remove cast iron from heat. Pipe potatoes over the top.
  • Place into the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
