🍗 Rachael Ray Turkey Noodle Casserole Ingredients

• 1/2 pound extra wide egg noodles
• Salt
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
• 3 slices bacon or turkey bacon, chopped
• 1 1/3 pound, the average weight of 1 package, of ground turkey breast
• 1 pound white mushrooms, wiped, trimmed and sliced
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• Black pepper
• 2 teaspoons dried thyme or poultry seasoning
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 1 cup chicken stock, available on the soup aisle, eyeball it
• 1/2 cup heavy cream, 3 turns of the pan
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
• 2 tablespoons softened butter
• 2 cups grated Gruyere, about an 8-ounce brick
• 1 cup plain bread crumbs
• 2 to 3 tablespoons chopped parsley leaves

🍲 How To Make Rachael Ray Turkey Noodle Casserole

1. Start your egg noodles by boiling a large pot of water. Add salt to the boiling water and cook the noodles until they are al dente.
2. Bring a large, deep skillet to a medium-high temperature. Combine bacon or turkey bacon with extra-virgin olive oil and one turn of the pan. Brown the bacon bits on the edges by reducing the bacon fat for 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Crumble the meat with a wooden spoon as you brown it. Toss the mushrooms and onions into the pan on the other side of the meat.
4. Cook the onions and mushrooms for 3 to 5 minutes, then mix the meat with the vegetables. Season the mixture heavily with salt and pepper, then add the poultry seasoning or ground thyme.
5. Cook an additional 5 minutes then add wine. Lift the pan drippings and bits to deglaze the pan.
6. Add the stock, whisk until it comes to a boil, then add the cream, whisk again, and turn the heat down to low. Stir in the nutmeg with the sauce. Adjust seasonings by tasting.
7. Turn the broiler on high heat. Toss the noodles, turkey, and sauce together. Transfer the turkey noodle mixture to a flameproof casserole dish after greasing it with a small amount of softened butter nestled in a paper towel.
8. Add bread crumbs and Gruyere cheese to the casserole’s top. Broil the casserole, with a distance of 8 to 10 inches, for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the crumbs are browned and the cheese melts.
9. Take the casserole out of the oven and sprinkle it with parsley.
