Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweet Spicy Pumpkin Turkey Pasta Dish.
Step 1
Begin by lightly coating a deep skillet with cooking spray and warming it over medium heat.
Step 2
Toss in the chopped onion and sauté until it turns translucent, which should take about three minutes.
Step 3
Next, add the minced garlic and let it cook for an additional minute, allowing the aroma to fill your kitchen.
Step 4
Introduce the ground turkey to the skillet, cooking it until it’s beautifully browned and no longer pink, which will take around eight to ten minutes.
Step 5
Once the turkey is ready, pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a lively boil.
Step 6
Stir in the pumpkin puree, low-fat milk, chipotle peppers, sugar, sage, black pepper, cinnamon, coriander, pumpkin pie spice, nutmeg, and salt.
Step 7
Lower the heat and let this delightful concoction simmer while you prepare the pasta.
Step 8
In a separate large pot, bring water to a rolling boil.
Step 9
Add a tablespoon of salt and the rotini pasta, cooking it until it’s tender yet still has a firm bite, about eight minutes.
Step 10
Drain the pasta and then combine it with the turkey-pumpkin sauce in the skillet, stirring well to ensure every twist of pasta is generously coated in that rich, flavorful sauce.
Step 11
Enjoy this comforting dish that brings warmth and satisfaction to your table.
