Start by cooking the ground turkey in a frying pan.

Add a little olive oil to the pan and turn the heat on high.

Add the ground turkey to the pan and break it up as it starts sizzling.

Reduce the heat to medium-high and continue cooking until the turkey is browned, about 8 minutes, stirring every minute.

Once the turkey is fully cooked, transfer it to a bowl and set aside.

In the same pan, add 4 tablespoons of butter and melt it over medium heat.

Once the butter is melted, add the cooked noodles to the pan and mix until they are coated with butter.

If the noodles were cooked in advance and are cold, turn the heat on high to reheat them, mixing every 30 seconds until heated through.

Taste the noodles and add more salt and pepper if needed.

Add the cooked ground turkey back into the pan with the noodles and mix until combined.
