Gordon Ramsay’s 10-minute Turkey Pasta

Gordon Ramsay's 10-minute Turkey Pasta is obviously quick to make, though it took me slightly longer because I used dried pasta instead of fresh. It has leeks, shallots, and sage, which gives it a wonderful aromatic depth of flavor. It's then topped with buttery, sage-infused breadcrumbs.
