- Prep Time 45 minutes
- Total Time 45 minutes
- Yield Serves 4
Ingredients
- 1 small boneless, skinless turkey breast half (about 2 pounds)
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Directions
-
Cut turkey, skinned side down, into 8 cutlets (see note). Cover with plastic wrap, and lightly pound cutlets with a meat mallet or bottom of a heavy skillet until inch thick. Season with salt and pepper.
-
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over high. Working in batches, cook cutlets until browned and opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes per side (add 1 tablespoon oil when needed). Transfer to a plate, and cover loosely with foil.
-
Add wine to skillet, and bring to a boil. Cook, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon, until reduced to 1/2 cup, 6 to 8 minutes. Whisk in Dijon; bring to a simmer. Remove from heat; stir in parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Top turkey with sauce.
Cook's Note
To make slicing easier, freeze the meat for 20 minutes. Then, use a knife with a long, thin blade to slice the turkey breast on the diagonal into wide cutlets, and pound to desired thinness.
This was very tasty and soooo easy.
I made this tonight for my husband and we both loved it! Great weeknight dinner.
