Use an electric pressure cooker to prepare this traditional pasta recipe.
Makes 4-6 servings
Ingredients: 1 pound (480 g) frozen ground dark meat turkey, 1¾ cups reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth, 1/4 cup (60 ml) dry red wine, 2 cups penne rigate pasta, 24 oz (720 ml) jar marinara sauce, 6 oz (180 g) whole-milk Mozzarella cheese, cubed, 2¼ oz (67 ml) can sliced black olives, drained, 1/2 cup (125 ml) grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions: Place the frozen (unthawed) ground turkey meat in a 5-7-quart (5-7 L) electric pressure cooker. Pour in chicken broth and dry red wine, then layer the dry penne pasta over the ground turkey. Flatten into a layer with a back of a tablespoon. Pour in the marinara sauce.
Close the pressure cooker and lock the lid. Set burner heat to high pressure. When the cooker reaches high pressure, reduce heat to low. Set a timer to cook for 20 minutes.
Open the pressure cooker, using the Quick Release method. The pasta should be tender. Break up the ground turkey meat, using a large spoon. The meat should be cooked through.
Using a heat-resistant spatula, fold the cubed Mozzarella cheese into the turkey mixture, then set the lid askew on top of the pressure cooker for about 5 minutes to let the cheese melt.
Serve cooked pasta immediately with sliced black olives and grated Parmesan cheese. Enjoy!

Method
Step 1
Pour chicken stock into 1 cup (250 ml) liquid measure. Sprinkle with powdered gelatin. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a pressure cooker turned to the sauté mode. Add diced pancetta and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and crisp, for about 2 minutes. Stir in onions, carrots, celery, garlic, sage, and half of the minced parsley leaves. Continue cooking and stirring until softened but not browned.
Step 3
Add chicken livers and cook, stirring occasionally, until the livers are no longer pink. Stir in beef and pork, then season with salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring and breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, until meat is no longer pink, for about 10 minutes. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until excess liquid has evaporated, and the meat starts to sizzle, for a further 25 minutes.
Step 4
Pour in the chicken stock mixture, dry red wine, tomatoes, and 1 cup (250 ml) heavy cream. Add the bay leaf.
Step 5
Close the pot and lock the lid. Set the machine to cook at high pressure. Set the timer to cook for 35 minutes.
Step 6
Using the Quick Release method, bring pressure to normal. Carefully unlock and open the lid. Switch the pot to the sauté mode. Simmer until thick and emulsified, for a further 30 to 45 minutes.
Step 7
Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup (125 ml) heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, fish sauce, basil, and remaining parsley. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly to emulsify. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
Step 8
Cook pasta in a large pot of salted water until tender. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup (125 ml) of cooking liquid. Transfer cooked pasta to a large nonstick skillet and add 3/4 of the sauce, along with cooking water. Cook, tossing and stirring gently, until sauce is thick and pasta is coated, for about 30 seconds. Transfer cooked pasta to a serving bowl. Top with the remaining sauce.
Step 9
Serve hot.
