In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic cloves, lemon juice, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.
Place the turkey breast steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each piece is well coated. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or for more flavor, up to 2 hours.
Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the turkey steaks, cooking them for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and golden brown. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
Remove the turkey steaks from the pan and place them on a serving platter.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve the turkey steaks hot with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad to keep the meal low carb.
