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.

    Best ever Turkey Tetrazzini!

    Rated: 4 stars out of 5
    This recipe is amazing, definitely not my mom's tetrazzini made with condensed soup, blah! The flavor and sauce is wonderful.... The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because mine turned out a little dry, so I'll try making it with more sauce next time. I could have put too much pasta in it though which could account for the dryness. Will be making this again soon with my left over turkey!Read more

    Casserole never tasted so good

    Rated: 4 stars out of 5
    I hate casserole. My husband loves them. Now we are both happy. This recipe does not use that awful condensed can of ----... but has you make your own thick sauce. You can use the cream as in the recipe or use evaporated milk like I did. I would add more red peppers next time as it gives it a nice dimension. Also, go light on salt as others suggested. I used half the amount and it was perfect, remember you can always add more if you need too. I didn't feel like making Emeril's seasoning so I used a mix I had on hand from Penzey's called Galena Rub. Use what you have in that catagory and it will be delicious! Read more

    Good with some changes...

    Rated: 4 stars out of 5
    I added peas/carrots, Marsala, cajun spices, sauteed celery and no peppers. I used leftover gravy instead of whipping cream... to cut down on calories. I crumbled up Ritz crackers for topping and it was good. I also used canned mushrooms.Read more

    Turkey Leftovers-Great Recipe!

    Rated: 4 stars out of 5
    My family really enjoyed this meal. Served with broccoli, might just add it right in the next time I make this. Only sub I... made was for the potato chips, I used panko instead and let it sit under the broiler for a few minutes at the end of the cooking time to crisp up the top. Oh, and I didn't add the Emeril Essence; the last time I made the Essence I never used it again...instead I used a sprinkle of cayenne and paprika. Read more
