TURKEY BOLOGNESE

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 carrot, peeled and finely chopped
1 celery stalk, finely chopped
1 pound shredded cooked turkey (preferably dark meat)
3 cups marinara sauce
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound spaghetti
Freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

Heat the oil in a heavy large frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the carrot and celery and saute until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the turkey and saute 1 minute. Add the marinara sauce. Decrease the heat to medium-low and simmer gently for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend, stirring often. Stir in the basil. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper. (The sauce can be made 1 week ahead. Cool the sauce completely, then transfer it to a container and freeze for future use. Bring the sauce to a simmer before using.)
Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender but still firm to bite, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Add the pasta to the sauce and toss to coat, adding enough reserved cooking liquid to moisten as needed. Serve with the Parmesan.

Tips:

Use a large pot: This will give the sauce plenty of room to simmer and develop flavor.
Brown the meat well: This will help to develop a rich, flavorful sauce.
Use a variety of mushrooms: This will add depth and complexity to the flavor of the sauce.
Don't be afraid to add some heat: A little bit of chili flakes or red pepper flakes can really liven up the sauce.
Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
Serve with your favorite pasta: Spaghetti, penne, or tagliatelle are all great choices.

Conclusion:

Turkey and mushroom bolognese is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give turkey and mushroom bolognese a try.
