  • 1.0 cup heavy cream
  • 1.0 cup chicken broth
  • 1.0 cup shredded herbed cheese blend
  • 1.0 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1.0 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1.0 medium onion, diced
  • 3.0 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1.0 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1.0 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1.0 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 0.0 to taste salt
  • 0.0 to taste pepper
  • 2.0 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1.0 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1.0 cup breadcrumbs

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
  • Add minced garlic and mushrooms to the skillet and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until mushrooms are tender.
  • Stir in the chopped spinach and cook just until wilted, about 2 minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded turkey, sautéed vegetable mixture, heavy cream, chicken broth, lemon juice, dried thyme, basil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
  • Transfer the mixture into a greased baking dish (about 9x13 inches). Ensure an even distribution throughout the dish.
  • Sprinkle the herbed cheese blend evenly on top of the turkey and vegetable mixture.
  • In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix to ensure even coating.
  • Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the cheese layer for a crunchy topping.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  • Remove from the oven and let it sit for 10 minutes to set. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
