Categories     turkey

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 TBL Balsamic vinegar
1/4 c olive oil
1 1/2 tsp honey
2 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 lb turkey cutlets, each about 1/4" thick
1/4 c dry white wine
1 TBL unsalted butter
1/2 c bread crumbs
Minced fresh parsley leaves for garnish
Salt and Pepper

Steps:

  • In small bowl, stir vinegar, honey until honey dissolves. Dredge the turkey in bread crumbs, press crumbs to make them adhere. In large heavy skillet, heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. In oil, saute turkey in batches turning once for 1 min. Transfer to platter. Wipe skillet and cook garlic in butter over mod low heat, stirring for 1 min until pale golden. Stir in wine. Boil until liquid reduces to 2 TBL. Stir in reserved vinegar and honey. Boil until syrupy. Spoon glaze over cutlets and sprinkle with parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the right balsamic vinegar. Not all balsamic vinegars are created equal. For a glaze, you'll want to use a high-quality balsamic vinegar that is at least 10 years old. This will give your glaze a rich, complex flavor.
  • Reduce the vinegar slowly. The key to a good balsamic glaze is to reduce it slowly and carefully. This will allow the vinegar to concentrate and develop its flavor.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan. A heavy-bottomed saucepan will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the vinegar from burning.
  • Don't boil the vinegar. Boiling the vinegar will cause it to lose its flavor. Instead, simmer it gently until it has reduced by half.
  • Add flavorings. Once the vinegar has reduced, you can add flavorings such as herbs, spices, or honey. This is a great way to customize your glaze and make it your own.

Conclusion:

Balsamic vinegar glaze is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It's perfect for drizzling over grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or fresh fruit. You can also use it to make dressings, marinades, and sauces. With a little practice, you'll be able to make a balsamic vinegar glaze that's perfect for any occasion.
