How to Make Totally Awesome Turkey Tetrazzini
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Stir until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in 3 cups of chicken broth.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup heavy cream.
- Reserve 2 cups of the sauce. In a large bowl, combine the reserved sauce with 1 pound cooked linguine.
- Pour the linguine mixture into a greased 9x13 inch casserole dish.
- Create a well in the center of the noodles, leaving about a 6x4 inch space.
- To the remaining sauce, add 2 cups cooked and diced turkey, 1 cup sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup chopped pimentos, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, and 1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce (or to taste).
- Mix well and pour the turkey mixture into the well in the center of the casserole dish.
- Sprinkle generously with 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- Cover the casserole dish with foil and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for another 20-30 minutes, or until bubbly and heated through, and the cheese is golden brown.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Yield: 8-10 servings.
