Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

10 fresh sage leaves, thinly sliced
1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves (a few large handfuls), chopped
Juice of 1 lemon
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds turkey breast cutlets
6 slices pancetta, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, chopped
2 pints Brussels sprouts, thinly sliced
3 1/2 cups chicken stock or broth
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (eyeball it)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  • In a shallow dish, combine the sage, half of the parsley, the lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, salt, and pepper. Add the turkey cutlets, coat thoroughly, and marinate for 5 minutes.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons of the EVOO (twice around the pan). Add the pancetta and cook until crisp, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the onions and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the sliced Brussels sprouts, 1/2 cup of the chicken stock, and the balsamic vinegar, stir to combine, and continue to cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender.
  • While the Brussels sprouts are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO. Add the turkey cutlets and brown on each side. Transfer the cutlets to a shallow baking dish and add 1 cup of the chicken stock to keep the meat moist. Transfer the cutlets to the oven, loosely tented with foil, for 6 to 7 minutes, or until cooked through. To the skillet that you browned the cutlets in, add the butter and melt it over medium heat. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in the remaining 2 cups of chicken stock and allow it to thicken up, 3 to 4 minutes. Season the gravy with salt and pepper and finish with the remaining parsley.
  • Serve the turkey cutlets with the gravy and the sautéed Brussels sprouts.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 chicken breast halves, pounded to 1/4-inch thick (or the equivalent of turkey breasts)
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
4 teaspoons honey
1 1/4 cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
salt and pepper
3 -4 tablespoons olive oil
6 garlic cloves, minced (if you're a garlic lover, add more to your taste)
1/2 cup white wine
1 -1 1/2 cup vermouth
minced parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Rinse chicken or turkey breasts in a colander, let drain.
  • Mix vinegar and honey until honey dissolves. Set aside.
  • Season bread crumbs with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken or turkey breasts in the Italian seasoned bread crumbs, pressing well to make them adhere.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 - 2 tablespoons olive oil until it is hot.
  • Saute the chicken cutlets for 1 minute per side (note that the cutlets won't be cooked all the way through, because they will cook later in recipe). Transfer them to a platter.
  • Add the remaining oil and garlic to the pan and cook just until garlic is golden (garlic burns easily, so be careful or it will impart a bitter taste).
  • Add the white wine and vermouth. Boil the mixture until sauce is reduced by half (more or less).
  • Add reserved honey and vinegar mixture and cook until syrupy. Taste for seasoning.
  • Place the cutlets back in the pan and simmer for 3 - 4 minutes more or until completely cooked. Garnish with parsley.
  • A Little Bit of a Tip: If you prefer extra sauce, just increase the sauce ingredients. This sauce is scrumptious over rice.
