How To Make Turkey Pasta Recipe?

Cook the Turkey: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Cook for 8 minutes, stirring until the turkey is browned.
Season: Add the oregano, garlic powder, and basil. Stir to combine.
Add Pasta: Stir in the rotini pasta. Mix it well with the turkey.
Add Sauce & Broth: Pour in the spaghetti sauce and chicken broth, making sure the pasta is covered. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat.
Simmer: Cover the skillet and cook for 7-10 minutes, until the pasta is tender but still firm.
Serve: Top with grated Parmesan cheese and enjoy!

Recipe Tips:

Don’t Overcook the Turkey: Make sure to cook the turkey until it’s just browned, as overcooking can make it dry.
Add Pasta at the Right Time: Stir the pasta in only after the turkey is fully cooked to ensure it blends well with the flavors.
Use Fresh Herbs for Extra Flavor: Fresh oregano adds more flavor, but dried oregano works if that’s all you have.
Adjust Sauce for Consistency: If the sauce seems too thick, add a bit more chicken broth to reach your desired consistency.
Cheese at the End: For a creamy finish, sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top just before serving to melt over the hot pasta.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?

Refrigerate: Cool the leftovers to room temperature, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Freeze: Freeze for up to 3 months. After cooling, put it in a freezer-safe container.
Reheat: Heat the pasta in a pan on medium heat, stirring and adding a little water or broth to keep it moist.
