Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

For tomato jam
4 plum tomatoes (about 12 ounces), cored and diced (2 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup white distilled vinegar
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
For turkey medallions
One 1-pound turkey breast (see Tips, below)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup polenta or coarse cornmeal
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup veal demi-glace , optional

Steps:

  • Make tomato jam:
  • In medium saucepan over medium heat, combine all ingredients and bring to boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until mixture has thick, jam-like consistency, about 1 hour.
  • Make turkey:
  • Slice turkey breast diagonally into eight (2-ounce) portions. Pound these with meat mallet between sheets of wax paper to 1/2-inch thick.
  • In shallow glass baking pan, combine flour, polenta, cumin, chili powder, coriander, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • In a large stainless steel sauté pan over medium heat, warm oil. Dredge turkey medallions in seasoned polenta mixture, add to pan, and cook (working in 2 batches if necessary) until golden-brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
  • To serve:
  • Place 1 turkey medallion on each plate, top with 2 tablespoons tomato jam, and place second medallion on top. If using veal demi-glace, spoon 2 tablespoons around each medallion.
