"Spanish" Spaghetti

This spaghetti was such a hit! Very hearty, and perfect for a winter supper. It also offered a nice twist on standard spaghetti--the olives and capers made such a difference! I will definitely be making this again!

8 ounces spaghetti
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups chopped onion
2 cloves minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces extra-lean ground turkey
1 2/3 cups marinara sauce
1/2 cup sliced pimiento-stuffed green olives
1/4 cup dry sherry
1 tablespoon capers

Add pasta to boiling water. Cook for about 9 minutes, or until done. Drain, and set aside.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté about 4 minutes or until tender. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute. Stir in oregano, red pepper, and black pepper. Crumble turkey into pan; cook 5 minutes or until turkey is browned, stirring to crumble. Stir in marinara sauce, olives, sherry, and capers. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes.

Add spaghetti to sauce mixture. Cook 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Enjoy with a crisp salad, or some crusty bread.
