Ingredients

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons sweet paprika
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 cup crushed tomatoes
• 1.5 cups chicken broth
• 0.5 cup sour cream
• 12 ounces egg noodles
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional 1 minute, or until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the ground turkey to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the sweet paprika, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute to toast the spices and enhance their flavor.

Step 6

Pour in the crushed tomatoes and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer and reduce the heat to medium-low. Let it cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 7

Turn the heat to low and stir in the sour cream until fully incorporated, creating a creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 8

Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and gently toss to coat them in the sauce.

Step 9

Sprinkle fresh parsley on top for garnish before serving.

Step 10

Serve the Ground Turkey Noodle Paprikash warm and enjoy your hearty, flavorful meal!
