New Recipes

These are the recipes Rochelle chose for this week.

Turkey Tetrazzini

While the recipe calls for uncooked turkey, Robin says its a great way to use up leftover cooked turkey or chicken so its a very fitting selection for this week.

12 ounces broad egg noodles

2 teaspoons olive oil

1/2 cup chopped onion

2 to 3 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup sliced mushrooms (button, cremini, portabella, or any wild mushrooms)

One 1-pound turkey tenderloin, cut into 1 inch pieces (about 4 cups)

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth

1/2 cup frozen green peas

1 1/2 cups sour cream

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

 

1. cook the egg noodles according to the package directions.  Drain and set aside, covered with aluminum foil to keep warm.

2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.  Add the mushrooms and cook stirring a few times, until they release their liquid.  Add the turkey and cook, stirring a few times, until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.  Add the thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper and stir to coat.  Cook, stirring, until the herbs are fragrant, about 1 minute.  Add the broth, bring to a simmer, and continue to simmer until the turkey is cooked through, about 10 minutes.

3. Add the peas and simmer for 1 minute.  Remove from the heat and stir in the sour cream and parsley.  Add the cooked egg noodles, then season to taste with salt and pepper.  Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese just before serving. 

 

Parmesan-Crusted Rolls

cooking spray

1 pound fresh or thawed frozen bread dough

1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1. Preheat the oven to 450 F.  coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.

2.  Break the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.  Place the balls on the prepared sheet, coat with cooking spray, and sprinkle with the parmesan.  Bake until puffed up and golden brown, about 8 minutes.
