How To Make turkey tetrazzini

  • Step 1
    Set a large pot of water over high heat and add 2 teaspoons salt. In a large (14-inch) skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, mushrooms, red pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, nutmeg, and paprika; cook, stirring often, until vegetables soften, 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking until golden brown, about 10 more minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a bowl and set aside.
  • Step 2
    Once water is boiling, add egg noodles. Cook according to package instructions until tender. Drain and set aside, covered
  • Step 3
    Meanwhile, melt remaining butter in skillet over medium heat. Add flour and cook, stirring until mixture looks glossy, about 3 minutes. Add broth and sherry in a slow stream, whisking as you go. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add milk, cream, cheese, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Whisk together. Reduce heat to low, return pan to heat, and stir in vegetable mixture and turkey. Serve hot over noodles with a generous sprinkling of parsley. Enjoy!!
