Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Turkey breast cutlets
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 4 pieces Prosciutto slices
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cups Chicken broth
- 0.5 cups Dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons Capers, rinsed and drained
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Place each turkey cutlet between two sheets of plastic wrap. Gently pound them with a meat mallet to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch.
Season the turkey cutlets with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Lightly dredge each cutlet in the all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
Wrap each cutlet with a slice of prosciutto, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the turkey cutlets in batches, 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Allow the mixture to simmer for 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly.
Stir in the capers and lemon juice, then cook for another minute.
Return the turkey cutlets to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over them. Heat for 1-2 minutes to ensure everything is warmed through.
Sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley and serve immediately, spooning more sauce over the cutlets. Great alongside roasted vegetables or a simple green salad.
