Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 6 potatoes, peeled and cut into small cubes
  • 1 onion, coarsely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled and coarsely chopped
  • 1 red chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped (optional)
  • 2 uncooked, smoked turkey legs
  • 1 (8 ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 head cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup canned baked beans in tomato sauce
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven or an oven-proof pot over medium heat. Add potatoes, onion, garlic, and chile pepper; cook and stir until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Place turkey legs on top; cover with diced tomatoes. Cover Dutch oven with lid.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are tender, about 45 minutes. Turn turkey legs around to coat with tomato mixture. Stir cabbage and baked beans into the pot; season with paprika, salt, and pepper. Replace lid.
  • Continue baking until turkey legs are tender, about 45 minutes. Pull turkey meat off the bones and cut into bite-sized pieces. Mix into the pot.
