Ingredients
- 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.
