Ingredients
  • 160.7 g Turkey, whole, breast, meat only, raw
  • 90.4 g More than Pasta® Red Lentil Pasta (Pedon)
  • 57.1 g Fresh Bean Sprouts (Bean sprout mix)
  • 9.5 g SODA, LEMONGRASS
Method
  1. 01Bring a small pot of water to a boil, adding the chopped lemongrass and a pinch of salt.
  2. 02Reduce heat to a gentle simmer and add the turkey breast, poaching for 8-10 minutes until the meat is opaque and tender. Remove turkey, shred with a fork into thin ribbons, and keep warm.
  3. 03In the same aromatic poaching liquid, boil the red lentil pasta until al dente, about 6-8 minutes.
  4. 04Drain the pasta, reserving a tablespoon of the fragrant broth.
  5. 05In a bowl, toss the cooked pasta with the shredded turkey and fresh bean sprouts.
  6. 06The residual heat from the pasta will slightly soften the bean sprouts, maintaining their crunch.
  7. 07Serve immediately, garnished with fresh herbs if available, for a light but protein-dense Thai-inspired morning meal.
