Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
2
Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add carrots, celery, and onion and saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Add cubed turkey, stuffing, turkey broth, salt, pepper, garlic, and thyme. Stir to combine and transfer into the prepared casserole dish.
3
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat for the sauce. Stir in flour and mix until a paste forms. Pour in 1 cup turkey broth and season with salt, thyme, onion, garlic, pepper, and poultry seasoning. Stir to combine and pour over the turkey mixture.
4
Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Remove and top with fresh bread crumbs. Melt remaining butter and drizzle over the bread crumbs.
5
Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
6
Broil casserole until bread crumbs are golden and toasted, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
