Instructions
Creating Gordon Ramsay Ground Turkey Pasta is a simple process that yields delicious results. Follow these steps to prepare this fantastic dish:
1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
3. Add Garlic and Peppers: Stir in the minced garlic and diced bell pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
4. Brown the Turkey: Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the ground turkey to the empty side and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Incorporate Zucchini: Once the turkey is cooked through, add the diced zucchini and stir everything together. Cook for another 3-4 minutes.
6. Add Tomatoes and Broth: Pour in the can of diced tomatoes (with juice) and the chicken broth. Stir well to combine.
7. Season the Mixture: Add the Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
8. Combine with Pasta: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet. Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated with the sauce.
9. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or herbs according to your preference.
10. Serve: Remove from heat and let it rest for a minute. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley and serve with grated Parmesan cheese on top.
