Ingredients

• 12 oz spaghetti (uncooked)
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion (finely chopped)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 8 oz white mushrooms (sliced)
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 3 cups chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 3 cups turkey (cooked and shredded)
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 0.25 cup dry white wine (optional)
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 2 tbsp parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

Cook the spaghetti in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente, according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the mushrooms and cook for 6-8 minutes until they release their juices and are golden brown.

Step 6

Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir well, cooking for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Step 7

Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and heavy cream, cooking for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens. Stir in the parmesan cheese until melted.

Step 8

Add the shredded turkey, frozen peas, and optional white wine to the sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 9

Combine the cooked spaghetti with the turkey mixture until evenly coated, then transfer everything into the prepared baking dish.

Step 10

Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and mix it with the breadcrumbs. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the casserole.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.

Step 12

Remove from the oven and let the tetrazzini rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
