Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Turkey breast
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
Instructions
Slice the turkey breast into thin strips, about 3/4 inch wide, and set aside.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix with the milk until smooth.
In a third bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, and paprika.
Dredge each turkey strip in the flour mixture, then dip it into the egg mixture, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Test by dropping a breadcrumb into the oil; if it sizzles, the oil is ready.
Working in batches, fry the breaded turkey strips for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
While the turkey strips cool slightly, prepare the dipping sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar until smooth and creamy.
Serve the turkey strips warm with the maple mustard dipping sauce on the side.
