Recipe -- Deadline 11/21

Sorry for the quick turnaround on this, but I was hoping to get an image for the recipe below before Thanksgiving. If there's no way of getting images through the approval process this quickly, please let me know and I will try to shuffle things around and revise the deadline accordingly. Thank you in advance for your help!


NEW YEAR'S HOPPIN' JOHN

Start to Finish: 1 hour
Servings: 10
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup red onion, chopped
½ cup celery, chopped
1 cup red bell pepper, chopped
2 jalapenos, stemmed and deseeded, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
2 smoked turkey thighs, skin removed
1 pound black eyed peas, soaked overnight and rinsed
1 quart low sodium chicken stock
1 bay leaf
3 sprigs fresh thyme (1 teaspoon dried thyme)
1 teaspoon salt
Salt, black pepper, and cayenne to taste
1 cup green onion, chopped
4 cups freshly steamed white rice

Heat the olive oil over medium high heat in large soup pot or Dutch oven. Add the onion, celery, bell pepper, jalapenos, and garlic, and cook until opaque and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Add the turkey thighs, peas, chicken stock, bay leaf, thyme, and a teaspoon of salt. Simmer for 40 minutes, or until peas are creamy and tender. If liquid evaporates, add more stock or water. Adjust seasonings, and garnish with green onions. Serve hot over rice.
