Classic Turkey
An elegant classic gets a modern kick with this quick and healthy entrée. Traditional turkey cutlets are mildly flavored with garlic, Worcestershire sauce and shallots. Earthy mushrooms top off the dish and add B vitamins, copper and selenium. AICR’s expert report found that foods containing selenium may help lower the risk for prostate cancer.

Sautéed Turkey Breast

1 lb. turkey breast cutlets
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup finely chopped mushroom caps
2 Tbsp. finely chopped shallots
1-2 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1 lemon, cut into 4 wedges

Sprinkle both sides of cutlets with garlic powder and rub in. Lightly salt and pepper.

Coat large skillet with oil and heat over medium heat for about 30 seconds. Place mushroom caps and shallots in skillet, sauté for about 1 minute, then push vegetables to side of skillet. Place turkey in skillet and sauté for 5-8 minutes on one side until browned; turn turkey and cook another 5-8 minutes, stirring vegetables until turkey is cooked through – no longer pink in the center.

Combine lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce and mustard in small bowl and mix well. Add to pan and cook over low heat until heated through – about 1 minute.

Top with a sprinkle of parsley, garnish with lemon wedges and serve.

Makes 4 servings.
