Thai seasoning is a blend of seasonings that is reminiscent of the
classic flavors of Thai cooking. The ingredients vary widely by
brand but often include garlic, coriander, onion, cilantro, and
pepper. Look for it at food specialty stores or larger supermarkets.

1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1 tsp Thai seasoning or curry powder
1 lb uncooked ground turkey breast
