Emeril'S Turkey Bolognese Sauce

Emeril'S Turkey Bolognese Sauce


1. In a Dutch oven or large, heavy saucepan, add the olive oil and bacon and cook until bacon is crisp and lightly caramelized, about 8 minutes.

2. Add the onion, carrots, celery, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until vegetables are soft and lightly browned around the edges, about 6 minutes.

3. Add the ground turkey and cook, stirring to break up any clumps, until meat is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes.

4. Add the white wine and garlic and cook until wine is nearly evaporated.

5. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, 5 minutes.

6. Add the canned tomatoes, bay leaves, thyme, rosemary, salt, and crushed red pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a steady simmer and cook for 10 minutes.

7. Add the chicken stock and cook, stirring occasionally, until flavors have come together and the sauce has reduced to a nice consistency, about 20 minutes.

8. Add the evaporated milk and continue cooking, partially covered, for 15 minutes longer.

9. Add the basil, stir to combine and let sit for 5 minutes before using as a sauce for cooked pasta or lasagna.
