The kind of Italian plate you make on repeat. tomato and oregano, a proper braise, and a finish of fresh herbs.
Free to cook
Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the tomato and oregano elements, and pat the turkey dry so it colours well.
Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Turn up the heat and add the turkey. Lower the heat, cover, and braise gently until everything is meltingly tender.
Stir in the parmesan and the rest of the tomato and oregano flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.
Add the red onion along with a splash of stock or water, then cover and cook gently until everything is tender and the sauce clings.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little acid. It should taste bright, savoury and balanced.
Finish with the chopped basil and serve while hot.
Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
