Ingredients
Instructions
-
Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Heat the oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, oregano, red pepper flakes, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 5 to 6 minutes.
-
Add the turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon into very small pieces, until no longer pink, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and soup and simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, 4 to 6 minutes (this should still be a loose mixture; it will thicken in the oven).
-
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the cottage cheese, parsley, and 1/2 cup mozzarella.
-
Transfer 3 3/4 cups sauce to a bowl. Lay one-third of the noodles evenly over the sauce in the skillet. Dollop with half the cheese mixture, then spoon 1 cup of the remaining sauce over the top; repeat once.
-
Top with the remaining noodles and sauce. Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake until the noodles are tender, 23 to 25 minutes.
-
Remove the foil. Broil until some of the noodle edges begin to crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella and broil until the top is golden brown and the edges of the noodles are crispy, 1 to 2 minutes more. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
