Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

1 1/4 pounds turkey breast cutlets, halved crosswise if large
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (1 1/2 ounces)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley or basil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
Accompaniment: lemon wedges

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Gently pound cutlets between 2 sheets of plastic wrap with a flat meat pounder or a rolling pin until 1/4 inch thick.

    Step 2

    Whisk together eggs, water, salt, pepper, cheese, and parsley in a shallow bowl (batter will be thick).

    Step 3

    Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides. Working quickly, dip 1 cutlet in batter, letting excess drip off, and add to skillet. Repeat with about 3 more cutlets (do not crowd in skillet) and cook, turning over once, until golden and just cooked through, about 4 minutes total. Repeat with remaining butter, oil, and cutlets.

    Step 4

    Serve with lemon wedges.
