To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

  1. 1

    Prepare the Green Onions

    Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

  2. 2

    Cook the Ground Turkey

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add ground turkey, half the ranch seasoning (reserve remaining for sauce), and 1/4 tsp. salt to hot pan. Break up meat until no pink remains and turkey reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 7-9 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Transfer turkey to a plate. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    Return pan used to cook turkey to medium heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil, half the bacon (reserve remaining for garnish), and white portions of green onions to hot pan. Stir often, 1 minute.

    After 1 minute, add flour and stir until no dry flour remains.

    Add cream base, remaining ranch seasoning, 3/4 cup water, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the Ground Turkey and Pasta

    Add ground turkey, peas, pasta, half the cheese (reserve remaining for garnish), a pinch of salt, and crème fraîche. Stir until thoroughly combined and heated through, 3-5 minutes.

    Remove from burner.
