Yield

4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 lb (500 g) ground turkey
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) dried sage
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) black pepper
  • 1-1/2 cups (375 mL) ready-to-use vegetable or chicken broth
  • 4 oz (125 g) cubed brick-style cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) grated lemon zest
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) lemon juice
  • 4 large carrots, spiralized

Instructions

  • In a large nonstick skillet, cook turkey over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon, for about 8 minutes or until no longer pink.
  • Drain and set aside. Return skillet to medium heat and melt butter. Sauté garlic and onion for 2 minutes. Return turkey to skillet, along with thyme, sage, salt and pepper.
  • Stir in broth and cream cheese until melted and hot. Stir in parsley, lemon zest and juice. Add carrot noodles and cook until heated through.
  • Pasta Variation: Use 12 oz (375 g) spaghetti or linguine pasta in place of the spiralized carrots. In a pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta for about 10 minutes or until al dente. Drain well and toss with sauce to serve.
