    Heat oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper; sauté until fragrant and slightly softened, about 1 minute. Pour water and broth into saucepan; immediately whisk in cornstarch and flour until smooth.

    Stir cubed turkey meat, 1/3 cup minced giblet meat, mashed neck meat, milk, vinegar, sugar, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley flakes into broth mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer, whisking occasionally, until gravy is thick, 30 to 35 minutes.
