Turkey Marsala Casserole





• 2 medium onions, chopped


• 3 cloves garlic, minced


• 20 ounce package of ground turkey breast


• 1 T olive oil


• Salt and pepper (don’t be shy here)





• 16 ounce box elbow macaroni





• 14 ounce can beef broth


• ¾ cup Marsala wine


• ½ cup flour


• ½ cup water





• 4 ounce jar of roasted red peppers, chopped





• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided








Preheat the oven to 375





Boil the macaroni in plenty of boiling water, to package instructions, but leaving a little on the “al dente” firm side. Drain.





Meanwhile, brown the meat, onions and garlic in oil, with salt and pepper, until meat is cooked and onion is tender. Drain.





Bring beef broth and Marsala wine to a boil. Mix flour and water together and add slowly to liquid, whisking and returning to a boil after each time you add some. You want to thicken the mixture to a consistency of gravy.





Mix the meat mixture, the broth, the macaroni, the peppers, ½ cup of the cheese together. Load into a sprayed 9x13 baking dish, cover with aluminum foil, and put into the preheated oven for an hour.





Remove cover, sprinkle with remaining cheese, and heat for 5-10 minutes until cheese is melted. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
