Kentucky Hot Brown Pasta
I am a huge fan of Kentucky hot brown sandwich. So naturally, I had to find more than one way to enjoy it. This Kentucky hot brown pasta is the answer. A creamy sauce is laced with turkey and cheese, then spooned over pasta and topped with bacon and tomatoes. It's nouvelle (nouveau?) comfort food!
Ingredients:
- 6 slices bacon
- 12 oz. thin spaghetti or angel hair pasta
- 5 Tbsp. butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1 tsp. dry mustard
- 1-2 dashes hot sauce (optional)
- kosher salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 oz. grated Parmesan cheese, divided
- 2 cups cooked, shredded turkey breast or chopped deli turkey breast
- 1 cup diced plum tomatoes
Preparation:
- Fry bacon. Drain on paper towels. Crumble and set aside.
- Prepare pasta according to package directions. Drain, but do not rinse.
- Heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the flour starts to darken, about 2 minutes.
- Whisk in milk and continue to stir until mixture thickens.
- Add dry mustard, hot sauce (if using), kosher salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Stir in half of the Parmesan cheese and the turkey. Remove from heat.
- Place pasta in a large serving dish. Pour turkey sauce over pasta. Top with crumbled bacon and chopped tomatoes.
