Turkey Cutlets With Basil Cream

Turkey Cutlets With Basil Cream

Diana Rattray
I love turkey cutlets for their flavor and versatility. They make a tasty replacement for veal or chicken.

Ingredients:

  • 4 turkey cutlets, about 1/2-inch thick
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
  • 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons prepared pesto
  • 12 to 18 grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise
  • Fresh grated parmesan cheese, optional

Preparation:

Wash turkey cutlets, pat dry, and season both sides with salt and pepper.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cutlets and cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until lightly browned. Remove to a plate and set aside. Add mushrooms to the pan and cook, stirring, until browned. Add the turkey cutlets back to the pan and pour chicken broth over all. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Add cream and pesto; cover and cook over low heat for 5 minutes longer. Add tomato halves and cook, uncovered, for 1 minute longer. Serve with hot cooked angel hair pasta and freshly grated parmesan cheese.
Serves 4.

"I replaced the mushrooms with broccoli. I also used chicken and since then have made with boneless pork chops. It is a big hit with my family."
