Turkey Cutlets with Lemon Caper Sauce

Turkey Cutlets with Lemon Caper Sauce

(4 servings)

Ingredients:

1 lb. Turkey Cutlets (1/4 thick)

4 tbsp. All Purpose Flour

½ tsp. Black Pepper

4 tsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1 medium Yellow Onion, fine dice

1 tsp. Fresh Thyme, minced

2 tbsp. Water

2 cups Chicken Broth

2 tbsp. Capers, rinsed and chopped

2 tbsp. Fresh Lemon Juice

2 tbsp. Fresh Flat Leaf Parsley, chopped

Directions:

Cut and pound cutlets into 4 – 4 ounce pieces about ¼ inch thick and set aside.  In a shallow dish combine the flour and pepper.  Dredge the cutlets through the flour mixture and shake off the excess.  In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat and add the cutlets one at a time.  If too big the cutlets may need to be done in batches.  Brown the cutlets on both sides for about 2 to 3 minutes each, transfer to a platter and place in a pre-heated 225 degree oven.  Now add onion, thyme and water to the pan.  Cook while you stir until onions have softened, about 3 minutes.  Add the capers, lemon juice and parsley to the mixture and combine.  Continue cooking about 1 minute after adding the cutlets back to the pan.  Remember to turn the cutlets once during this minute and serve.

Note:               This recipe works well with chicken cutlets too.  You may want to try the recipe using pork or veal cutlets as well.
