Elevate your weeknight dinner with these elegant Turkey Cutlets Stuffed with Apples and Cranberries. Perfectly seasoned turkey cutlets are filled with a sweet and savory stuffing made from tender apples, tart dried cranberries, buttery breadcrumbs, and aromatic thyme, then rolled up and baked to golden perfection. A quick sear gives the cutlets a beautifully crisp exterior, while a splash of chicken broth keeps them juicy and flavorful as they bake. Ready in just 45 minutes, this dish is ideal for impressing guests or adding a gourmet twist to your everyday meal. Serve these stuffed turkey cutlets with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp green salad for a wholesome, satisfying feast.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the diced apple and cook for 4-5 minutes until softened.
Stir in the dried cranberries, thyme leaves, breadcrumbs, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes, then remove from heat. Let the stuffing mixture cool slightly.
Lay each turkey cutlet flat and place about 2 tablespoons of the apple and cranberry stuffing in the center of each cutlet.
Carefully roll up each cutlet and secure it with toothpicks to hold the stuffing in place.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sear the stuffed turkey cutlets for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Pour the chicken broth into the skillet and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the turkey is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
Remove the toothpicks from the cutlets and serve warm with your favorite side dishes.
