Baked Pasta With Turkey Tomatoes And Mozzarella Food

TURKEY PASTA BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a 12-inch heavy oven-safe sauté/deep pan over medium heat on the stovetop, then add onion and cook, stirring often, for 3 to 5 minutes or until softened. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in cooked turkey, uncooked pasta, artichoke hearts and sun-dried tomatoes.
• Next, pour in pasta sauce (take 1/2 cup of the chicken broth and rinse out the jar of pasta sauce to get every last bit and pour that in too), remaining 2.5 cups of chicken broth, half-and-half, crushed red pepper flakes, black pepper and salt (if using). Stir to combine everything, ensuring pasta is submerged in the liquid. Keep the pot over the heat for 3 to 4 minutes just to let the liquid start to warm before placing into the oven.
• Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and bake (uncovered) for about 45 to 50 minutes (check on at the 45 minute mark) until bubbly, the pasta is cooked through and the cheese on top is melty and a little golden brown. Note: Ovens vary. If your cheese browns too quickly, you can loosely cover with aluminum foil (ensuring the aluminum foil isn't touching the cheese).
• Once done, carefully remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 to 15 minutes (don't skip this step) before garnishing with parsley (if using) and serving. Enjoy!
