Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Turkey breast fillets
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 slice Lemon
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Place the turkey breast fillets between two sheets of plastic wrap. Gently pound them with a meat mallet until they are about 1/4 inch thick. This ensures even cooking.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly using a fork to distribute the spices.
In another shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined. This mixture will help the coating adhere to the turkey fillets.
Dredge each turkey fillet first in the almond flour mixture, making sure to coat all sides, then dip into the egg mixture and back into the almond flour mixture. Press the coating firmly onto each fillet to ensure adherence.
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the butter has melted and starts to sizzle, add the turkey fillets to the pan. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
Cook the turkey fillets for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the coating is golden brown and the turkey is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Transfer the cooked fillets to a serving platter. Squeeze a slice of lemon over the escalopes for a fresh burst of flavor and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve immediately while hot, alongside your choice of keto-friendly sides.
