Chicken Fried Turkey Cutlets

Look! Don't even ask...Just trust me that this is good and copy this recipe-


INGREDIENTS:


1/4 cup(s) all-purpose flour

3/4 teaspoon(s) poultry seasoning, or 1/4 teaspoon each dried thyme, sage, and marjoram

1/8 teaspoon(s) cayenne pepper

1 large egg

1 large egg white

1 tablespoon(s) water

1 1/2 cup(s) fresh whole-wheat breadcrumbs (see Tip)

4 (1 to 1 1/4 pounds) turkey breast cutlets

2 tablespoon(s) canola oil, divided

1 slice(s) bacon, chopped

3/4 cup(s) reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth

1/2 cup(s) brewed coffee

1/2 teaspoon(s) sugar


DIRECTIONS:

1.Preheat oven to 200 degrees F. Place a baking sheet in the oven.

2.Combine flour, poultry seasoning (or thyme, sage, and marjoram) and cayenne in a shallow bowl; reserve 1 tablespoon of the mixture in a small bowl. Whisk egg, egg white and water in another shallow bowl. Place breadcrumbs in a third shallow bowl.

3.One at a time, dredge the turkey cutlets first in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess, then dip in the egg mixture to coat. Coat on both sides with breadcrumbs, pressing to help the crumbs stick.

4.Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium, add half the cutlets and cook, turning once, until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the cutlets to the baking sheet in the oven. Return the pan to medium heat and repeat with the remaining oil and cutlets.

5.Add bacon to the pan and cook, stirring, until browned and crisp, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Sprinkle with the reserved 1 tablespoon seasoned flour and cook, stirring, 1 minute more. Stir in broth, coffee and sugar and cook, stirring, until thickened, 2 to 4 minutes more. Serve the cutlets with the gravy.


TIPS & TECHNIQUES:

To make your own fresh breadcrumbs, trim crusts from whole-wheat bread. Tear bread into pieces and process in a food processor until coarse crumbs form. One slice of bread makes about 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs.

Serve with Red Wine...Enjoy!
