Whether you’re seeking a lighter protein for a comforting curry or aiming to make the most of your Thanksgiving leftovers, this dish is the perfect solution. I love that I can turn leftovers into a completely different meal. Whether you’re looking for a way to give leftover turkey a new taste, or after a healthier, leaner way to enjoy a warming curry, there are many reasons to love this turkey curry. This is why my family loves it:

Comfort: The curry sauce in this recipe is based off my butter chicken recipe that I’ve been making for YEARS – it’s the most delicious, rich, and creamy butter chicken sauce! So good you’ll want to eat it by the spoonful. At your kitchen counter. Use up leftovers: Eating Christmas or Thanksgiving leftovers can feel monotonous at times, but this turkey curry recipe makes it feel brand new. It’s a leftovers recipe for people who don’t like leftovers! Lean protein: The bigger pieces of pulled turkey make this so much better than a ground turkey curry, and makes for a nourishing dinner. Easy peasy: It’s a breeze to whip this curry up! Like many curry recipes, it’s quite forgiving and you can adjust the spice blend according to your tastes. Crowd-pleaser: It’s a healthy, gluten-free, and paleo dinner recipe that the whole family will love. My daughter gives two thumbs up, so it’s safe to say it’s also kid-approved.

If you want to make some sides to make it a spread, this roasted tandoori cauliflower pairs perfectly. Other veggies that go well on the side include creamy cucumber salad, or sauteed asparagus.
