Turkey Tetrazzini

I know tetrazzini usually calls for linguine, but I really wanted to use up the less than half empty boxes of rotini.

4 turkey breasts
12-16 ounces rotini pasta
2 heads broccoli, trimmed
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp butter
1/4 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
14 ounce can reduced sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup shredded white cheddar cheese
Handful of bread crumbs
Handful of shredded parmesan

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. I boiled the turkey breasts because it is easier. You just need to watch it because it can dry out real fast if you cook it too long. Cook pasta as directed on box. Once it is almost done, add broccoli to the pasta water.

In a saucepan, add butter and garlic. Cook just to melt butter. Add flour, salt, pepper, broth and milk. Cook until thickened. Add sour cream and stir until combined. Add cheese and stir until melted.

Add pasta, broccoli and turkey to a casserole dish. Pour cream sauce over and mix. Sprinkle bread crumbs and parmesan over top. Place in oven until cheese is melted.
