Lightened Up Turkey Paprikash Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to boil for pasta. When it comes to a boil, add pasta and salt to season the cooking water. Cook pasta 6 minutes to al dente.
• While water comes to a boil and pasta cooks, heat a deep skillet over medium high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil then butter then ground meat. Break up meat and crumble, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic, onions, red bell peppers and seasonings to the turkey. Cook 5 or 6 minutes then add chicken stock and sour cream to the pan. Bring to a bubble and reduce heat to low. Add cooked pasta and stir. Let pasta absorb some sauce, a minute or so. Adjust seasonings and serve. Garnish the prepared dish with chopped parsley and dill.

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook noodles until al dente; drain. In a bowl, toss turkey with 1 tablespoon paprika; season with salt and pepper. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium. Working in batches, brown turkey, 3 to 5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Add onion to skillet; cook, stirring, until tender, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Return turkey to skillet (along with any juices); add tomatoes (with juice), 1 tablespoon paprika, and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer. Cook, breaking up tomatoes with a wooden spoon, until turkey is opaque throughout, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Remove from heat, and stir in sour cream; season with salt and pepper. Serve paprikash over noodles.

Steps:

• Pat turkey dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high. In batches, cook turkey until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and tent loosely with foil.
• Reduce heat to medium, then add onion, tomatoes, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter; cook until onion has softened and tomatoes have broken down, 6 minutes. Add paprika and cook 1 minute.
• Add broth and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream. Return turkey to pan along with any accumulated juices. Sprinkle with dill and serve over noodles.

Steps:

• Warm the oil in a Dutch oven over high heat. Add half the mushrooms, season with salt, and brown for 5 minutes, stirring once or twice. Meanwhile, spread the potatoes on a plate or a shallow bowl and microwave for 3 to 5 minutes; they should be about halfway cooked, not fully. (If you don't have a microwave, you can parcook in salted boiling water for 3 to 5 minutes instead.) Transfer the first batch of mushrooms to a plate, add a little more oil if the pan is dry, and brown the second batch the same way, seasoning with salt and transferring them to the plate when done.
• Reduce the heat to medium-high. Add the butter to the pot, then the onion. Season with salt and cook for 3 minutes, stirring, until the onion just begins to soften. Add the garlic and cook for 2 more minutes, until the onion is soft and the garlic is fragrant. Reduce the heat to low and add the sweet and smoked paprikas; stir well to combine the spices with the onion. Add the wine, increase the heat to medium and let it come to a simmer while you scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Add the vegetable stock and the crushed tomatoes, then the potatoes and mushrooms, along with any liquid that accumulated on the plate. Season generously with black pepper. Increase the heat to high to bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cover the pot. Cook for 15 minutes.
• Uncover the pot and cook for about 5 minutes more, until the potatoes are fully tender and the liquid has reduced a bit. Meanwhile, combine the sour cream and flour in a medium bowl, then whisk a few ladlefuls of the hot liquid into the sour cream mixture. Reduce the heat to low, then add the sour cream mixture and herbs to the pot. Stir well, and adjust the texture of the stew with up to ½ cup of water if it is too thick for your taste. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if you like.

Steps:

• Cook noodles according to package directions, omitting salt and fat.
• While noodles cook, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Combine sour cream, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a bowl; set aside.
• Combine 1 tablespoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt, onion, and turkey, tossing to coat.
• Add turkey mixture to pan; sauté 4 minutes or until turkey is done. Add broth; cook 2 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates. Reduce heat to medium-low.
• Add sour cream mixture; cook 1 minute or until thoroughly heated, stirring constantly (do not boil). Serve over noodles.
