Instructions
In its Make The Switch® campaign, Jennie-O encourages people to switch to turkey in favorite family recipes. So we whipped up this turkey ravioli that is A+ in the flavor department.
- Pour semolina flour and a teaspoon of salt onto your countertop and form a flour mound with a well in the middle. Whisk together two eggs, water and olive oil, then pour into the well.
- Slowly mix the eggs into the flour until it becomes a thick consistency. Knead the dough onto a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until firm. Then wrap dough in plastic wrap and let rest at room temp.
- Heat olive oil in a saucepan on the stove. Reduce heat to medium and place the ground turkey in the pan, mixing and breaking up the turkey with a spatula constantly as it cooks.
- When the turkey looks cooked on the outside mix in garlic powder, salt, pepper, thyme + basil. Cook until mix reaches 165°F as measured by a meat thermometer. Take pan off the heat + let it cool down.
- Roll out dough onto a floured surface until it's about ⅛ inch thick. Fold the dough over itself into thirds and roll out again to ⅛ inch thick. Repeat one more time to get a rectangle of pasta.
- Cut two equal sheets of the same size from your rolled out pasta. Whisk one egg in a small bowl and brush it onto one of your two pasta sheets.
- Spoon teaspoons of the cooked ground turkey onto the sheet of pasta in a straight grid.
- Dollop a teaspoon of ricotta on top of each turkey mound.
- Carefully lay the second sheet of pasta on top.
- Press the sheets together in between each mound to force out air bubbles and seal the ravioli.
- Cut them into squares with a ravioli or pizza cutter, running the blade in straight lines in between each filling mound.
- Cook in boiling water with a pinch of salt for 8-10 minutes or until your ravioli floats to the top and is al dente. Drain immediately.
- Top with warm tomato sauce, a sprinkling of good olive oil, shaved parmesan and fresh basil.
