Pasta with beans and turkey in tomato sauce, in comparison with the previous recipe, will also be simple and quick. But it will differ in its satiety, due to the presence of beans in the composition. This dish is perfect for any weeknight dinner after work. The recipe is easy to prepare. The cost of the products is not high, as is the preparation time.
About the ingredients:
Turkey fillet can be replaced with chicken fillet or a small piece of pork.
Tortiglioni can be replaced with any other short pasta.
Parmesan can be replaced with another hard or semi-hard cheese.
This is my first time trying a combination of beans and pasta. I will say that it is quite unique. The pasta seems to become a little starchy. But overall not bad. And the most important advantage of the dish is its satiety.
It is worth mentioning individual tolerance (or intolerance) to legumes. If there are problems, then it is better to reduce the portion of beans by 2-3 times from the proposed one, or replace them with green beans, but this will have a completely different taste, or completely abandon the beans in this recipe
And a little about the chosen type of pasta:
Tortiglioni (Italian: Tortiglioni) is one of the first forms of pasta invented in Naples. They are short tubes with a specific pattern, from which this type of pasta acquired its name “Tortiglioni” - grooves running in a spiral, which remain after processing on a lathe.
Due to the emptiness inside this type of pasta, as well as the ribs on the surface, the sauce with which the tortiglioni is served is the most “opened” during the meal. In fact, this is why the famous sauces of Italian cuisine are most often served with this type of pasta.

Step 1: Prepare the green beans.
First of all, rinse the green beans under running water and place them on a plate. After this, pour ordinary water into a medium saucepan so that it half fills the container, and put it on medium heat. When the water boils, add a few pinches of salt to the pan, mix everything well using a tablespoon and carefully place the green beans into the boiling water for literally 2-3 minutes
and immediately after that turn off the burner, and pour the liquid with the beans through a colander into the sink, holding the pan with oven mitts. Leave the beans in this container to cool to room temperature. This process is very important, because thanks to blanching, many vegetables retain all their beneficial vitamins and microelements, and also retain their color. After the green beans have cooled, transfer them to a cutting board and, using a knife, cut them into small pieces. Transfer the chopped ingredient to a free plate.
Step 2: prepare the garlic.
Place the garlic cloves on a cutting board and lightly press them with the handle of a knife. Afterwards, remove the husks from them and transfer them to a free saucer. Attention:
the garlic must be pressed down so that the juice comes out of this vegetable during the frying process.
Step 3: Prepare the basil.
We wash the basil leaves under running water and place them on a cutting board. Using a knife, chop the greens and place them in a clean saucer.
Step 4: prepare the cheese.
Using a fine grinder, grate the Parmesan cheese directly into an empty plate.
Step 5: prepare the tomatoes.
Rinse the tomatoes under running water and place on a cutting board. Using a knife, make cross-shaped cuts on the vegetable and transfer to a deep bowl. Then pour hot water over the tomatoes and leave in this state for 5-7 minutes.
Immediately after this, use a tablespoon to remove the tomatoes and transfer them to a cutting board.
We leave them in such a state that they cool to room temperature. Now, with clean hands, remove the peel and cut it into four parts with a knife. Place the processed tomatoes in a blender bowl and grind them at low speed for 1 minute
until pureed.
Step 6: prepare tomato sauce with beans.
Pour a small amount of olive oil into the pan and place the container over medium heat. When the oil is hot, turn the heat down to medium and add the garlic cloves to the pan. While constantly stirring the component with a wooden spatula, fry it for 1-2 minutes
.
During this time, the garlic will release juice and give an unforgettable aroma, which will add sophistication to the tomato sauce. Immediately after this, pour the tomato puree into the container, mix everything well with available equipment and continue to cook the sauce for another 3-4 minutes
.
Afterwards, add salt to the dressing to taste and add chopped basil to the pan. Mix everything again and cook the sauce until the excess liquid evaporates for another 5-6 minutes
, stirring everything from time to time with a wooden spatula.
After the allotted time has passed, turn off the burner, and after 10 minutes
, when the sauce has cooled a little, add chopped beans to it and mix everything well again until smooth.
Step 7: prepare the pasta.
Attention:
it is necessary to cook the pasta when we are preparing the tomato sauce, since it is better to pour hot sauce over the pasta.
So, pour plain water into an empty pan and place the container on medium heat. When the water boils, turn the heat to less than medium, add 2-3 pinches of salt
, mix everything well and carefully place the pasta in the container.
Mix everything again with a tablespoon and cook for 7-10 minutes
, depending on the type of spaghetti.
Note:
Cooking times for pasta may vary, so it is best to follow the instructions on the package. In any case, after the allotted time has passed, you can try the pasta and, if it is already soft, then turn off the burner. Now, holding the pan by the handles with oven mitts, pour the liquid with the pasta into the sink through a colander and leave it in such a state that all the liquid drains.
Step 8: prepare spaghetti with beans and sauce.
When all the water has drained from the pasta, put it back into the pan and pour in the tomato sauce along with the beans. Using a tablespoon or wooden spatula, gently mix everything until smooth. At the end, sprinkle the dish with grated cheese and set
aside to brew for 5 minutes
Step 9: Serve spaghetti with beans and sauce.
When the spaghetti with beans and sauce is infused, the dish can be served.
Spaghetti turns out aromatic, very tasty and satisfying. A real royal lunch or dinner for a large happy family! Enjoy your meal! You can use canned tomatoes or tomatoes to make tomato sauce.
You can use pasta of any shape to prepare the dish. It can be horns, spaghetti, and snails. After all, this will not change the taste of the dish.
If you are using frozen green beans, then be sure to take them out of the freezer in advance and set them aside to defrost to room temperature. Important: Never defrost beans in a microwave oven or under running hot water.
