Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Turkey breast steaks
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Start by patting the turkey breast steaks dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Rub the marinade mixture evenly over each turkey steak. Allow them to sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter.
Once the butter is sizzling, add the marinated turkey steaks to the skillet, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are browned and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
Remove the turkey steaks from the skillet and set them aside to rest on a plate.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits.
Allow the broth to simmer and reduce slightly, then slowly stir in the heavy cream.
Continue to cook the sauce until it thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Return the turkey steaks to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.
