Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Turkey cutlets
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 3 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the turkey cutlets on both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.
Once the butter has melted, place the turkey cutlets into the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the cutlets from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet.
Stir in the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar, whisking until the sugar has dissolved.
Pour in the chicken broth and simmer for 3-5 minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce slightly and thicken to a syrupy consistency.
Return the turkey cutlets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top to coat evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to warm the cutlets through.
Transfer the turkey cutlets to a serving plate and drizzle with any remaining sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Serve warm with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
