Velvet Turkey and Herbs

Serves 4; 2/3 cup per serving

 

The velvety cream sauce may taste rich, but don't worry. It's made with fat-free evaporated milk, which adds richness without fat. Serve over hot cooked orzo, small pasta shaped like rice, or brown rice.

Cut turkey or chicken into bite-size pieces.

Spray a skillet with vegetable oil. Place over medium-high heat. Add turkey or chicken, shallots or onion, and garlic to hot skillet. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, or until turkey or chicken is tender and no longer pink in center.

Stir flour into mixture in skillet. Add remaining ingredients. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly, about 3 minutes. Cook 1 minute more, stirring constantly.
