Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Gluten-free spaghetti
- 3 cups Cooked turkey (shredded or diced)
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
- 4 oz Cream cheese (softened)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 8 oz Mushrooms (sliced)
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a bit of olive oil or cooking spray.
Cook the gluten-free spaghetti according to the package instructions, ensuring it is al dente. Drain and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, sprinkle in the gluten-free flour and whisk for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
Slowly pour in the chicken broth while whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Follow with the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
Mix in the cream cheese, stirring until it melts smoothly into the sauce. Then, add the Parmesan, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir to combine.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked spaghetti, shredded turkey, sautéed mushrooms, peas, and creamy sauce. Toss until everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
