Since I mentioned it on the thanksgiving leftovers thread, I thought I might oughta post my recipe. This stuff is great when you have guests as a pound of chicken or turkey and a pound of spaghetti noodles can easily feed 6, with leftovers. Very filling and very very good.

Turkey Tetrazinni.

First, preheat oven to 350 then get a pot of water on to boil and start the spaghetti noodles. Somewhere between 12 ounces and a pound. If you have precooked turkey breast on hand, you can skip the step of cutting up three chicken breasts (about a pound total) and sauteing them until they're done.

Now, in a slightly large pot, add half an onion minced very fine, and about half a stalk of celery again minced very fine, with 2 tablespoons of butter just until the onions go clear. Add 3 more tablespoons of butter to the pan and when it melts add a quarter cup of flour. Stir that about three minutes and then add 1 and a half c. cream and a half cup of milk and stir. When it starts to thicken, add a 1 and a third cup chicken broth. When it starts to thicken up add a third cup of parmesan and take it off the heat.

pour the drained spaghetti in a large 9 x 13 cake pan, sprinkle the chicken bits over the top, pour the sauce over it all, and then give it a little bit more texture by mixing a half cup of bread crumbs mixed with a third cup of parmesan.

Pop the mess in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. If you want a little more crunch on top, turn on the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes, but I usually skip that step cause we're hungry and need food NOW.

Good good stuff... and it took me longer to type it than it usually does to make!

Bump by request.

THANKS

Good stuff!

It has been a long time since I have had terazinni. Copied to send to wife for her collection. Thanks Katt

I made Katt's recipe yesterday. I used some smoked chicken breast left over from a beer can chicken made last week. Also added some sliced mushrooms with the chicken.
Fantastic. Instant favorite. Thanks Katt.

LOVE hearing feedback from my recipes! This is one of the household staple favorites here. Regular weeknight dinner. Glad y'all enjoyed!

Got give credit where is due. I have made quite a few of Katt's recipes. I have yet to find one that did not deliver. Don't stop sending them Katt. You are a treasure on this forum.
