There is nothing like a plate of smothered turkey wings tucked into a thick homemade gravy to bring comfort to the table. This classic Southern recipe turns simple turkey wings into a showstopping dish you can serve anytime you want real-deal soul food at home.
I first made these for a Sunday dinner when my house was packed and everyone was craving hearty comfort. From that day on, these turkey wings became my must-have for holidays and lazy days alike.
