Newfie Poutine
Someone asked have you ever tried Newfie Poutine to which I replied no what is it? He proceeded to tell me that it was just like a regular Poutine but with Chicken and Stuffing and some add Green Peas. This sparked my curiosity thinking this is like a Thanksgiving leftover platter, how interesting. So sometime later, my mind thinking about it, I made it and WOW! This is so good. So much comfort when eating this.
This is absolutely one of the best ways to use leftovers after a Turkey Dinner provided there is still some Stuffing left. If not make some more. You can swap this out with chicken any day of the week. If you have this after a Turkey Dinner, everything is already made for you. So it’s an excellent way to bring together your Leftovers to create another dish.
Newfie Poutine Ingredients
Use only a little of each ingredient. This Newfie Poutine Builds up fast. I use a Cheese blend of shredded Mozzarella & Provolone Cheese at a 3:1 ratio. It’s so much better than just regular Mozzarella Cheese and the Provolone just gives it that little extra.
The ingredients are
- French Fries – Homemade Fries or store bought
- Stove Top/Stuffing
- Chicken/Turkey
- Cheese Blend & JFC Gravy.
Newfie Poutine Toppings
The addition of Green Peas, Waxed Beans, Carrots, Corn, Bacon, Onions, or any other leftovers that might go well with this dish can be placed on top.
French Fries
Use Store bought and Air Fried Fries or Homemade French Fries and deep fried.
Homemade Fries
Takes a long time to make and needs to be deep fried but these are really good.
Air Fryer Fries
Air Fry store bought French Fries.
Stuffing
Use either Homemade Stuffing or Stovetop to top the Fries.
Stovetop
Newfie Poutine Chicken or Turkey
Leftover Chicken or Turkey is used to top the poutine. That’s what makes this dish so great after the holidays. It uses up the leftovers. Although it doesn’t have to be. This can be enjoyed any time of the year by Baking the chicken pieces to be stripped off the bone and used.
Salt & Pepper Chicken
This is an excellent recipe for making up some fresh chicken for the Newfie Poutine.
Use 1 Chicken Quarter or 2 Legs for each portion.
Newfie Poutine Gravy
We like to use JAH Frickin Good Chicken Breading to make the gravy. Otherwise use a standard Chicken or Turkey Gravy.
JFC Gravy
- 2 1/2 C Water
- 1/2 C Poultry Brine
- 1/3 C Rendered Chicken Fat
- 1/3 C JFC Frickin Good Chicken Breading
- 3 Tbl Flour
- 1 Cube Maggi Bouillon Chicken
Mozzarella Cheese Blend
The shredded cheese blend of High Moisture Saputo Mozzarella & Provolone Cheese at a ratio of 3:1 is fantastic on poutines.
Mozzarella Cheese Blend
Made by combining 3 Cups of Saputo Mozzarella Cheese and 1 Cup of Provolone Cheese.
How to make Newfie Poutine
Make sure you have everything ready to go and hot by the time the Fries are done. Stovetop made, Gravy and Chicken or Turkey heated up. Deep Fry or Air Fry the French Fries and assemble the plate.
You don’t need much at all as this stacks pretty good. It will seem like you are not putting enough on. But only a little of each ingredient is needed.
