Skillet Pasta with Turkey and Horseradish Sauce’; a castle

Everything I make seems to be orange lately…. It’s either butternut squash, pumpkin, or a tomato sauce, which should be red, but then I add yogurt and paprika or, in this case, horseradish, and it turns orange. For the curious…. this is what it really looked like. There might have been an orange tomato in there, too…. This is based on Turkey Cutlets with Horseradish. I loved the sauce and finishing it with pasta in the skillet seemed like a good idea, Print Skillet Pasta with Turkey and Horseradish Sauce This is an easy pasta with a slightly hot sauce….

(There is more info on the French wiki site Chateau de Biron). We stopped once, when the dogs were puppies and we were doing leash training, but we just got to walk around the outside. When the family was here we went in. It’s a big complex, almost more like a small village than a castle. It was built during the 12th century, and, like most castles, has had a colorful past. And, like most castles was added on to, rebuilt, remodeled, etc. by each new owner. So while some parts are very old, some are relatively new, only 400 or 500 years old. Some bits were even fixed up only 200 years ago! More next time… Share PinterestFacebookTwitterYummlyLinkedinemail Related
