Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt in a large pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Add spaghetti to the pot of boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min. Drain and return the pasta to same pot.
While the water boils for the spaghetti, cut the zucchini in half lengthwise, then into 1/2-inch thick half-moons. Drain the roasted red peppers. Pat the turkey dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle all over with half the Italian seasoning. Set aside.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil, then the turkey. Cook until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side. Transfer turkey to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Carefully top the turkey with the red peppers, 1/4 cup crushed tomatoes, then the mozzarella cheese. Bake, in the middle of the oven, until turkey is cooked through and cheese is melted, 10-12 min.**
While the turkey roasts, add 1/2 tbsp oil to the same pan, then add the zucchini. Cook, stirring often, until tender-crisp, 2-3 min. Season with salt and pepper. Add the remaining tomatoes and remaining Italian seasoning, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring often, until slightly thickened, 1-2 min.
Once the pasta is done, pour the tomato-zucchini sauce into the large pot with the pasta. Add 2 tbsp butter and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
Divide the pasta and tomato-zucchini sauce between plates. Top with the mozza-roasted red pepper turkey.
