turkey cutlets or tenderloins Sat, 02/7/09 12:20 PM (permalink)

I was at Publix yesterday and saw that Jennie O had Turkey breast tenderloins or cutlets on sale so I bought a pack.  Have any of you seen this and what do you do with it?   I suppose anything that you do with boneless chicken cutlets, however these are a bit thicker.  Your thoughts or recipes would be welcome.

    I use the tenderloins for Turkey piccata. Just pound it nice and thin.

      Pound the cutlets and use for "chicken" parmigiana.
      I also have used in marsala recipes.

        Tmizerk's got a good idea....I've seen several recipes like that...Turkey Tettrizini is another one....

        How about turkey squares!  Hey, don't laugh.  I use to love this dish in high school.  They use a moist, well seasoned stuffing and add big chunks of white meat turkey.  They bake it and serve it with a good cranberry sauce on the side.  Make up some mashed potaotes and a gravy.  Great kids dish.

        I'd use a Pepperidge Farms herbed dressing or better yet, my own stale cubed bread.  Add in, sauteed in butter, onions and celery.  I'd put in a few whole beaten eggs for moisture and some heavy cream, too.  You could also put in some dried fruits like cranberries and apricots and perhaps some pecans , too.  I'd also add fresh parsley and a small amount of sage, thyme, parsley and rosemary to the already seasoned stuffing mix. etc.

        Cut up the raw tenderloins and bake it all in a buttered casserole dish until the turkey is just cooked through.

            great ideas guys...thanks now I don't which one to pick.  Ben yours sounds really good just roast it off.  I don't know about you but I love turkey even more than I love chicken.

              BB, you forgot the pound of fried bacon for the stuffing.
