- 1 pound 93% ground turkey
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- ½ yellow onion (chopped)
- 1 medium carrot (peeled and chopped)
- 1 celery rib (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 10 ounces uncooked mezze rigatoni ( or fusilli pasta (or your favorite GF pasta))
- 1 ½ cups canned crushed tomatoes (Tuttoroso (15 ounce can))
- 2 ½ cups chicken bone broth (I used Swanson)
- 1 teaspoon Calabrian chili paste (optional)
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese (freshly grated , plus more for garnish)
- fresh basil (for garnish)
- ricotta (optional for serving)
Steps
Heat a large deep skillet over medium high heat. Spray with olive oil and brown the ground turkey with 1 teaspoon salt, breaking into small pieces. Cook until the turkey is no longer pink, 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
Add the olive oil, onion, carrot, and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have started to soften, about 5 minutes.
Add the tomato paste and garlic; stir it into the turkey mixture. Cook for a few minutes, until fully coated. Add the pasta, cooked meat, crushed tomatoes, bone broth, and Calabrian chili paste, if using. Stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, then turn the heat down to medium low to maintain a gentle simmer.
Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the parmesan cheese.
Serve topped with extra parmesan cheese, basil, and ricotta if using.
