Makes 4 servings
ACTIVE TIME: 35 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 35 minutes
EASE OF PREPARATION: Easy
1 cup ruby port or cherry juice
1/2 cup pitted sweet dried cherries
1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 Tbsp cornstarch
1 lb 1/4-inch-thick turkey breast cutlets
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
4 tsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 tsp butter
1/3 cup chopped red onion
1 Tbsp minced fresh rosemary
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1. Combine port (or cherry juice) and dried cherries in a small
saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer gently
for 5 minutes. Cover and remove from heat.
2. Meanwhile, whisk broth and cornstarch in a small bowl until
smooth. Season cutlets on both sides with salt and pepper. Place
flour on a large plate and dredge the cutlets, shaking off
excess flour.
3. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium
heat. Add half the cutlets and cook until golden brown and just
cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter,
cover and keep warm. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the
pan and repeat with the remaining cutlets. Transfer to the
platter and cover.
4. Heat butter in the pan over medium heat. Add onion and rosemary
and cook, stirring often, until the onion is tender, 3 to 4 minutes.
Whisk the cornstarch mixture and stir into the pan along with the
cherry mixture and vinegar. Reduce heat to low, return the turkey
and any accumulated juices to the pan and cook, turning to coat
with sauce, until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve the
turkey topped with the cherry sauce.
