Ingredients You Need To Make Creamy Parmesan Turkey Spaghetti:

Spaghetti - A half pound of your favorite spaghetti. You can also use linguine or fettuccine in this recipe.

Butter - We use salted butter in this recipe but you can also use unsalted.

Onion - Use a half yellow or white onion in this recipe. This is equivalent to one cup chopped.

Garlic - Use four to five large garlic cloves. I highly recommend using fresh garlic in this recipe for the best flavor.

Ground Turkey - Use a quality lean ground turkey. You can also use ground beef in substitution.

All-Purpose Flour - Regular all-purpose flour works best in this recipe. We use this to thicken the parmesan cream sauce.

Half and Half - Half and half goes in to the cream sauce. You can use whole milk as a substitute.

Chicken Broth - Use chicken or vegetable broth. You'll need about one and a quarter cup.

Parmesan Cheese - I highly recommend using a high quality parmesan cheese for the best flavor. You'll need ¾ cup for the sauce and more for garnish.

Seasonings - Salt, Black Pepper, Basil, Parsley, Red Pepper Flakes.
