Turkey Steaks With Parma Prosciutto Recipes

TURKEY STEAKS WITH PROSCIUTTO AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Place the turkey steaks between sheets of plastic wrap and pound them evenly, with a meat pounder or flat mallet without breaking the flesh, until the fillets are about 1/4-inch thick.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dredge lightly in the flour and shake off the excess.
• Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet large enough to cook the turkey pieces in one layer. Scatter the mushrooms around the turkey and cook over high heat about 2 minutes or until golden brown on one side. Turn the turkey and cook about one minute more on the other side. Remove the turkey and the mushrooms and place on a warm platter. Keep warm.
• In the same skillet, without removing the oil, saute the prosciutto briefly, about 15 seconds. Add the butter and garlic clove to the pan. Return the turkey and the mushrooms to the pan along with any juices that have accumulated around the turkey. Place a slice of prosciutto over each.
• Sprinkle the sage over the prosciutto and pour the Marsala into the pan. Cover and cook for about one minute.
• Remove and serve immediately. Spoon equal portions of the broccoli rabe dish onto four warm serving plates. Top each serving with the turkey and mushrooms. Pour the sauce over and sprinkle with parsley.

TURKEY STEAKS WITH PARMA PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Pound the turkey slices lightly with a meat pounder or flat mallet without breaking the fibers. Sprinkle on both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge all over with the flour and shake off the excess.
• Heat the oil and butter in a non-stick skillet large enough to hold the slices in one layer. When it is very hot add the turkey slices and brown quickly on both sides. Cook for a few minutes more. Transfer to a baking dish large enough to hold the pieces in one layer. Keep warm.
• Add the wine to the skillet and cook, stirring, over high heat until the wine becomes syrupy. Spoon the sauce over the turkey slices and top each piece with one slice of prosciutto and one slice of cheese. The prosciutto should be entirely covered with the cheese. Place under the broiler until the cheese melts. Sprinkle with basil and serve.

TURKEY CUTLETS WITH PROSCIUTTO AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat grill to high.
• Sprinkle turkey pieces with salt and pepper.
• Cut cheese into thin slices to fit neatly in one layer, slightly overlapping, on turkey steaks. Set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the turkey steaks in one layer. Add the steaks and cook about 4 minutes or until nicely browned on one side. Turn the steaks and top each with one slice of prosciutto. Sprinkle evenly with rosemary and cover closely. Cook about 3 minutes.
• Transfer prosciutto-topped steaks to a serving dish. Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet and when it melts add shallots. Cook briefly, stirring, and add mushrooms. Cook, stirring, about 2 minutes.
• Add chicken broth and stir. Cook about 1 minute over relatively high heat.
• Meanwhile, cover prosciutto-topped steaks with equal portions, and in one layer, of cheese. Run briefly under the broiler until cheese melts. Pour mushroom mixture over the cheese and serve hot.

TUSCAN-STYLE TURKEY ALLA PORCHETTA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Arrange prosciutto slices vertically side by side on a cutting board, overlapping each by 3/4 inch. Place turkey, skin side down, on the prosciutto slices, with wings at top and legs at bottom. Arrange turkey tenders at each side to fill in the space between the wings and legs.
• Sprinkle turkey with 2 tablespoons salt, including the back side of the tenders and under any other loose pieces of meat. Sprinkle garlic, fennel fronds, fennel seeds, rosemary, sage, and fennel pollen evenly over turkey. Arrange turkey so there are no separations (turkey should be in one even layer).
• Starting from the bottom, roll turkey tightly with prosciutto, keeping prosciutto in place. Tie together with kitchen twine at 3-inch intervals.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Brown rolled turkey on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a roasting rack set on a large rimmed baking sheet or in a roasting pan. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center reaches 165 degrees and juices run clear, about 50 minutes. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Serve with gravy.

ROAST TURKEY WITH PROSCIUTTO, ROSEMARY AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Pat turkey dry. Run hands under skin of turkey, separating skin from breast and thighs. Rub 3 tablespoons rosemary and 3 tablespoons garlic under skin over breast and thighs. Carefully arrange half of prosciutto under skin over breast and thighs. Rub 1 tablespoon rosemary and 1 tablespoon garlic inside cavity of turkey. Sprinkle remaining prosciutto into cavity. Place turkey in heavy large roasting pan. Cover with plastic and chill overnight.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Rub outside of turkey with oil. Season with pepper. Place 1 head of garlic in cavity of turkey. Place 2 heads of garlic in roasting pan. Tie turkey legs together. Roast turkey 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F. Continue roasting turkey until thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 180°F, basting occasionally with 2 cups broth, about 3 hours. Transfer turkey to platter. Surround with roasted garlic and garlic from turkey cavity. Remove prosciutto from turkey cavity; reserve. Tent turkey with foil.
• Pour pan juices into large glass measuring cup. Skim fat from surface of pan juices, reserving 3 tablespoons fat. Set roasting pan over medium-high heat. Add wine and bring to boil, scraping up any browned bits. Add wine mixture to pan juices in cup (liquids should measure 2 1/2 cups; if not, add more both or boil until reduced to 2 1/2 cups).
• Heat reserved 3 tablespoons fat in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. Add flour; stir until golden, about 2 minutes. Whisk in pan juices. Mix in 1/2 teaspoon rosemary. Boil until thickened to sauce consistency, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Mix in reserved prosciutto. Garnish turkey with rosemary springs. Serve with gravy.
