Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Turkey breast
- 4 large Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Lemon
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Begin by patting the turkey breast pieces dry with paper towels. Lay them in a shallow dish.
Peel and mince the garlic cloves. In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic with olive oil, the juice of the lemon, paprika, black pepper, and salt.
Pour the marinade mixture over the turkey pieces, ensuring they are well coated. Allow them to marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours for fuller flavor.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. You can use a grill pan for nice grill marks or a regular pan.
Once the pan is hot, add a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and swirl to coat.
Place the marinated turkey breasts into the pan. Cook for about 7-8 minutes on each side, or until the turkey is thoroughly cooked and no longer pink in the middle. The internal temperature should read 165°F (74°C).
While the turkey is cooking, finely chop the fresh parsley.
Once cooked, remove the turkey breasts from the pan and transfer them to a serving platter.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the turkey bifes for garnish before serving.
Serve the Soy-Free Bifes de Peru with your choice of side, such as steamed vegetables or roasted potatoes.
