Bread
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (about 3 ounces)
2 tablespoons lemon zest, grated (2 large lemons)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 turkey cutlets, cut into 2-inch wide strips (2 pounds)
1/4 cup freshly-squeezed lemon juice (2 large lemons)
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Lemon slices for garnish (optional)
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Put bread directly on oven racks
and bake until dried out but not browned, about 10
minutes. In a food processor, process bread until fine
crumbs form.
2. Place crumbs, cheese, lemon rind, salt and pepper into
a re-sealable plastic bag; shaking to mix. Dip cutlets into
lemon juice and one at a time, place cutlets in bag;
shaking to coat. Repeat until all cutlets are coated.
3. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over mediumhigh
heat hot. Add about one-third of the turkey cutlets
to the skillet, making sure they do not touch each other.
Cook cutlets 4 to 5 minutes, turning once, until just
cooked through and golden brown. Repeat twice more
with remaining cutlets, wiping down pan with a paper
towel between batches, if necessary. Serve cutlets with
lemon slices.
These cutlets are so tasty, we suggest cooking a double batch
and freezing for dinner another day.
