- This is a great recipe for leftover turkey after the holidays.
- You can also use leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken.
- Dry white wine such as Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc work well.
- If you wish to omit wine, sub with an extra cup of low-sodium chicken broth.
- Feel free to add 8 oz sliced mushrooms to the sautéed garlic and onions.
- You can substitute the red bell peppers and broccoli with peas or any other vegetables you like.
- You can use Italian seasoning in place of basil if you'd like.
- If desired, prepare extra cooked/crumbled bacon to top the casserole before baking.
- If you are short on time, you can also serve the linguine with the finished sauce and skip the panko topping/baking part. If you do this, cook the linguine a bit longer, according to the package instructions.
