Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups chopped onions
  • 1/2 cup chopped red bell peppers
  • 7 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 pound white button mushrooms, ends trimmed, sliced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Essence, recipe follows
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly chopped thyme leaves
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 2 cups chicken stock or low-sodium canned chicken broth
  • 1 3/4 cups heavy cream
  • 12 ounces wide egg noodles
  • 1 pound cubed or bite-size shredded roast turkey
  • 1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley leaves
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • 1 (5 1/2-ounce) bag potato chips, crushed

Directions

Saute the onions and bell peppers in 6 tablespoons butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over high heat until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Add the mushrooms, Essence, and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are soft and have released their liquid, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with the flour and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the wine and chicken stock and cook, stirring, until smooth and thick, about 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and very flavorful, 15 to 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain in a colander and set aside.

Butter a 9 by 13-inch casserole or baking dish with the remaining tablespoon of butter and set aside.

When the sauce has thickened, add the noodles, turkey, parsley, salt, black pepper, and Parmesan to the skillet and stir until thoroughly combined. Transfer to the prepared casserole and top with the potato chips. Bake uncovered until bubbly and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.

    So easy, so good!

    Thank you Emeril!!! A new family favorite. My only suggestion, make half the amount of noodles. I acutally used glutten... free spaghetti and my family raved.Read more

    The best Turkey Tetrazzini ever

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I made the tetrazzini and by the end of the evening, there was just one small helping left. The wine really made it! My son... and his friend had 3 helpings each. I love the potato chips on top - reminds me of the tuna casserole my mom used to make. Read more

    Wonderful Turkey Tetrazzini

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    Excellent! I used whole wheat spaghetti instead of noodles. I think the next time I make this-and there definitely will be... a next time-I will use a lot more wine and skip the potato chips. Highly recommended and it tasted wonderful! Read more

    layers of flavor

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    Doesn't look much different from other casseroles of this type but the layers of flavor are great. Especially good the next... day. I used cornflakes and melted butter instead of Potato chips because that is what I had.Read more

    Best Turkey Tetrazzini we've ever had!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This is a great way to use up leftover thurkey. I loved it, as I do most of Emeril's recipes, but the true indication of... just how good this was came when my 15 year old son cleaned his plate and reached for a second helping! That never happens with him! Thanks Emeril!Read more

    Not the boring turkey tet I remember from childhood

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This was awesome. I used week old pitiful turkey leftovers and made an amazing meal. Skipped the mushroom because I didn't... have them; used jarred roasted red pepper and fresh green pepper. The family thought the potato chips were weird, I think they are fun and different. Will probably use buttered bread crumbs when I'm trying to use up the turkey next year. Read more
