🧂 Ingredients

1 Heat a large saute pan to medium heat.
2 Once the pan is hot add the turkey brest strips to the pan. Cook for 3-5 minutes
tossing often to prevent buring.
3 While the turkey is cooking, bring a medium pot with 5 cups of water to a boil.
Once boiling add the pasta to the pot. Season the water with a few dashes of
salt. Cook the pasta in the boiling water for 8 minutes.
4 While the pasta is cooking and once the turkey has been cooking for 3-5 minutes,
add the red onions to the pan and toss with the turkey, cook for an additional 2
minutes.
5 After 2 minutes add the asparagus and canned tomatoes to the pan. Toss together
and cover with the lid, cook for 5 minutes.
6 By now the pasta should be done. Strain the pasta, reserving about 1/4 cup of
the pasta water. Add the pasta and the reserved pasta water to the pan with the
turkey, asparagus, and tomatoes. Continue to cook on medium heat for 2-3
minutes. At this point the turkey will be cooked thru, and the asparagus will be
done!
