Notes

  • Use leftover turkey from a holiday meal, or buy cooked or smoked turkey at the grocery store. You can also use raw turkey in this recipe.
  • You can substitute cooked or raw chicken in this dish instead of turkey.
  • Adjust the amount of turkey or chicken according to your taste or how much you happen to have leftover.
  • It can be a little challenging to mix the linguine into the turkey mixture even after breaking it in half. You can use rotini, gemelli, or other smaller pasta to make this step easier.
  • When reheating this dish, microwave it a few minutes at a time. Add a little water or milk first to help prevent it from being dry.
