1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2
Cook penne pasta according to package directions in a pot of salted water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
3
In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
4
Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes until they are tender and browned.
5
Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Then add the flour, stirring constantly for 1 minute.
6
Whisk in the chicken broth and half and half to the skillet. Bring the sauce mixture to a simmer, cooking for 3-4 minutes or until thickened.
7
Remove the sauce from heat and mix in 3/4 cup of grated parmesan cheese until well blended and melted. Set aside the remaining 1/4 cup for later use.
8
In a large bowl, combine the cooked penne pasta, diced turkey, and frozen peas. Pour the mushroom sauce over the mixture and toss to coat evenly.

Transfer the pasta mixture to the prepared baking dish.

Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and mix it with the Italian breadcrumbs. Sprinkle this mixture over the pasta, followed by the reserved 1/4 cup of grated parmesan cheese.
