Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound white mushrooms, quartered
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, plus more
1/4 cup flour

One 8-ounce package cream cheese
3 cups leftover Thanksgiving turkey, shredded or diced
1 1/2 cups frozen green peas
1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup finely chopped black olives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

  • Pour in the broth, stir and continue to cook until the sauce is nice and thick, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add the cream cheese and stir until it mixes in. (Don't worry if it seems a little lumpy at first. That will go away!)
  • Add the turkey, peas, Monterey Jack, olives, Parmesan and bacon.
  • Stir until everything is well combined, then add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add the spaghetti and stir to combine. If the mixture is too thick, splash in 1/2 cup of broth.

SIMPLE ROAST TURKEY



Simple Roast Turkey image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 6h15m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

One 18- to 20-pound whole turkey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 sticks (1 cup) salted butter, softened
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
2 lemons, zested
1 orange, zested

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Remove the giblets from inside the turkey. Pat the turkey dry and place it on a roasting rack, breast-side up. Cross the legs and tie them together with kitchen twine. Tuck the wings under the bird and transfer the roasting rack to its pan. Season the turkey with salt and pepper. Cover the whole bird and pan with aluminum foil, tucking it all the way under the pan. Roast for the first stage for 10 minutes per pound, 3 to 3 1/2 hours for an 18- to 20-pound turkey.
  • Meanwhile, place the butter, rosemary, thyme, sage, lemon zest and orange zest in a bowl. Mix together until combined.
  • After the first stage of cooking, remove the turkey from the oven and remove the foil. The turkey will still be pale at this stage. Smear the butter mixture all over the skin and into the crevices of the turkey so that it is totally covered. Insert a meat thermometer into the thigh and increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Return the turkey to the oven and roast, basting every 30 minutes, until the internal temperature on the thermometer reads 165 degrees F, an additional 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
  • Put the turkey on a cutting board, cover loosely with fresh aluminum foil and rest for 25 to 30 minutes until you're ready to carve, saving the pan juices for gravy.

Time 50m

Yield 1 13x9 pan, 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 lbs thin spaghetti, Broken In Half
4 tablespoons butter
4 garlic cloves, Minced
1 lb white mushroom, Quartered
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup white wine
1/3 cup flour
4 cups turkey broth (or Chicken)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
3 cups cooked turkey (leftover, Shredded or Diced)
1 cup finely chopped black olives
1 1/2 cups frozen green peas
4 slices bacon, Fried And Cut Into Bits
1 cup grated monterey jack cheese
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
salt and pepper, to taste
turkey broth (extra for Thinning)
1 cup panko breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Cook pasta until not quite done - al dente according to package instructions (it will finish cooking in the oven.)
  • Drain, rinse, and set aside.
  • In a large pot, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add garlic and saute for a couple of minutes. Add mushrooms and salt, then saute for a couple more minutes.
  • Pour in the wine and allow it to cook with the mushrooms for several minutes, or until the liquid reduces by half.
  • Sprinkle in flour, then stir the mushrooms around for another minute. Pour in the broth and stir, cooking for another few minutes until the roux thickens.
  • Reduce heat to medium low. Cut cream cheese into pieces and add it to the pot. Stir it to melt (don't be concerned if the cream cheese remains in little bits for awhile; it'll melt eventually!) Add the leftover turkey, the olives, the peas, the bacon, and the cheeses. Stir to combine, adding salt and pepper as needed.
  • Add the cooked spaghetti and stir it to combine. Splash in more broth as needed; you want the mixture to have a little extra moisture since it will cook off in the oven. If it's a little soupy, that's fine! Add up to 2 more cups of liquid if you think it needs it.
  • Pour the mixture into a large baking dish and sprinkle the top with Panko crumbs.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the crumbs are golden brown.

SPICY CHICKEN SPAGHETTI



Spicy Chicken Spaghetti image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 hot Italian sausages
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more if needed
10 ounces button mushrooms, sliced
1 green bell pepper, chopped
8 sundried tomato halves, chopped
1 pound spaghetti, broken into small pieces
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup half-and-half
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
3/4 cup grated Parmesan
Serving suggestions: salad and French bread

Steps:

  • Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with 2 pieces of foil.
  • Put the chicken in a large pan, season with salt and pepper and cover with water. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 45 minutes. Remove the chicken and let cool, then shred the meat, discarding the skin and bones. Save the broth for cooking the spaghetti.
  • Remove the sausage from the casings and put into a large skillet with the olive oil. Cook over medium heat, breaking up the sausage meat into small pieces, until it is no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Add the mushrooms to the skillet. When they give up their liquid, add the green peppers and sundried tomatoes, then cook until just beginning to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and set aside on top of the sausage. Reserve the oil in the skillet.
  • Bring the reserved chicken broth back to a boil. Cook the spaghetti in the broth until al dente according to the package instructions, then drain, reserving the broth.
  • If there is less than 2 tablespoons oil/fat in the skillet, add some olive oil to make 2 tablespoons. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute over medium heat. Whisk in 1 1/2 cups of the reserved chicken broth. When it starts to thicken, after about 5 minutes, add the half-and-half. If it is too thick, thin with some more broth. Turn off the heat and add the basil and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan; season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chicken, sausage and vegetables. Stir in the spaghetti.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan on top and cover with aluminum foil. Cook the casserole immediately, or let cool completely, then freeze.
  • If cooking right away, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Cook for 25 minutes, then uncover the baking dish and cook until heated through, an additional 20 minutes.
  • To cook from frozen: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Cook the frozen casserole for 2 hours, then raise the temperature to 375 degrees F, uncover and cook until heated through, 15 minutes more.
  • Serve with salad and French bread.
