I have a package of Turkey cutlets that I need to use for dinner tomorrow night. I am NOT going to the grocery store for anything else, so I need some inspiration.
I am going to make couscous with it, but I need some suggestions on how to cook the turkey. I took a quick look in the pantry and I have white beans, sundried tomatoes, black beans, and chick peas. I have fresh broccoi and some frozen sugar snap peas from our graden.
(I have staples: onions, stock, garlic, etc.)

Any inspiration would be helpful, I am in a food funk. (hence, the spaghetti and meatballs we are having tonight)

Pan sautee the cultets after dredging in flour. Combine the white beans, sun dried tomatoes and peas, with garlic and white wine some butter or oil. Serve over the coucous.

What's a turkey cutlet?

My daughters love a very simple dish: marinate cutlets in soy, ginger and garlic for 30 minutes. Saute the cutlets in some Pam vegetable spray. The eat it up. I think its fine.

A better dish I like is a classic for us: Sauted cutlets with just salt and pepper. Remove the cutlets to a warm plate and add a couple of minced shallots to brown for a couple of minutes. Finish with a reduction of once cup of white whine and one cup of chicken stock. Serve over rice with the stock.

Enjoy

Thanks Rick, I think I am suing your classic recipe. I actually have shallots.

I've made turkey like Rick's recipe and it is very good. I cook the stock and wine down until it is reduced by at least half, and then swirl in some cold butter at the end to thicken the sauce. Chopped up herbs for garnish and you are set!

I also dredge the cutlets in wondra flour before cooking to encourage browning.
