TURKEY CUTLETS WITH PARMESAN CRUST

Steps:

• Season cutlets with salt and pepper.
• Combine bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a medium bowl.
• In another bowl beat egg whites.
• Dip turkey cutlets in egg whites, then breadcrumb mixture, shaking off excess.
• Heat a large nonstick frying pan on medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil.
• When butter melts, add the cutlets and cook about 6 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Serve with lemon wedges.

PAN-SEARED TURKEY CUTLETS WITH WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut turkey, skinned side down, into 8 cutlets (see note). Cover with plastic wrap, and lightly pound cutlets with a meat mallet or bottom of a heavy skillet until inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over high. Working in batches, cook cutlets until browned and opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes per side (add 1 tablespoon oil when needed). Transfer to a plate, and cover loosely with foil.
• Add wine to skillet, and bring to a boil. Cook, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon, until reduced to 1/2 cup, 6 to 8 minutes. Whisk in Dijon; bring to a simmer. Remove from heat; stir in parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Top turkey with sauce.

TURKEY CUTLETS WITH PAN GRAVY

Steps:

• Mix poultry seasoning, seasoned salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; sprinkle over turkey. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add cutlets in batches; cook until no longer pink, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from pan; keep warm., In same pan, melt butter over medium heat; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in broth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining pepper. Serve with turkey.

TURKEY CUTLETS WITH PLUM SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. One at a time, place the cutlets between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or heavy skillet until 1/4 inch thick. Transfer the cutlets to a bowl and toss with the cayenne, 1 teaspoon coriander, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Set aside.
• Toss the plums with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon coriander, a pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Grill the plums, turning once, until just starting to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside.
• Grill the turkey until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side.
• Finely chop a few of the grilled plum wedges; put in a large bowl. Stir in the lemon juice, the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Add the arugula and toss. Top the turkey with the salad and the remaining grilled plums.

BRAISED RED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Cook the bacon until crisp, over medium heat in a large Dutch, that has a lid, about 4 minutes. Add the onions, cinnamon, bay leaves, and 1 teaspoon of the salt. Cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, about 8 minutes.
• Increase the heat to medium-high, add the cabbage and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 8 minutes. Add the apple, broth, vinegar, sugar, the remaining salt, and pepper, and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender, about 1 hour.
• Uncover; bring to a boil, and cook, stirring, until the liquid has reduced to a sauce-like consistency, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and serve.

BASIC BRAISED TURKEY

Steps:

• Put the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the turkey and brown the leg (and, if you're using them, wing) portions on the skin side well, 10 minutes or more; turn and cook for another 2 minutes on the skinless side. Remove to a plate and brown the breasts in the same skillet, again mostly on the skin side; remove and keep them separate.
• Heat the oven to 300, and cook the bacon or pancetta (if using) in the remaining fat in the skillet until nearly crisp; remove with a slotted spoon. Cook the onions, mushrooms, carrots, celery and herbs, in batches if necessary, until beginning to brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer with the bacon or pancetta to a large roasting pan, then nestle the dark meat in there, leaving room for the breasts. Add stock or water to come about one-third to halfway up the sides of the thighs.
• Roast uncovered for about 90 minutes, checking occasionally to make sure liquid levels remain sufficiently high and stirring vegetables if they threaten to brown too much. When thigh meat is tender, place the breasts in the pan, and cook until tender, 30 to 45 minutes more, or until done. (They should register 155 on an instant-read thermometer.)
• Slice breast and thigh meat and serve on a platter with the vegetables garnished, if you like, with parsley.

PAN-ROASTED TURKEY CUTLETS WITH RED CABBAGE AND ORANGES

Steps:

• Melt 2 tbsps of butter in a large heavy pot over a high heat.
• Add the sliced onions and sugar and stir well. Reduce the heat slightly and cook for about 15 minutes until the onion is dark brown.
• Add the red cabbage and cook for 5 minutes. Then add the vinegar and cook for another 5 minutes.
• Add the red wine, coriander seeds, nutmeg, cinnamon sticks, thyme and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. When the mixture starts to boil, put on the lid and transfer the pot to a 350F oven.
• Bake for about an hour, stirring at least twice.
• Cut off the peel from the oranges and slice into rounds.
• When the cabbage is almost done, season the turkey cutlets with salt and pepper and generously rub with olive oil.
• Heat a grill pan until just smoking and add the turkey cutlets cooking for about 4 minutes on each side. Depending on the size of your pan, you may need to cook in 2 batches.
• Cover the cutlets with foil to rest.
• Melt the remaining 2 tbsps of butter in a non-stick pan over a medium high heat.
• Add the orange slices and cook until golden. This will take just a few minutes.
• Serve and enjoy!
