Ingredients
Scale
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground turkey
1 small yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 (24-ounce) jar gluten-free pasta sauce
3 cups water
1 (12-ounce) box gluten-free penne pasta
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1 pinch salt
1 pinch black pepper
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 sprig fresh basil
Instructions
Brown the Meat: In a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and onion, cooking until the meat is browned and the onion is soft, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for one more minute until fragrant.
Simmer the Sauce: Pour in the pasta sauce and water (or broth), then add the dried Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Give everything a good stir, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Cook the Pasta: Add the uncooked gluten-free pasta to the pot and stir to submerge it in the liquid. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
Add the Cheese: Remove the pot from the heat and stir in half of the mozzarella cheese until it’s melted and gooey.
Serve and Enjoy: Spoon the pasta into bowls, top with the remaining cheese and a sprinkle of fresh basil. Dig in while it’s hot!
