Turkey Scallops with Lemon



TURKEY ESCALOPES WITH LEMON are a light and tasty second course, perfect for many occasions, from a quick lunch with the family to dinner with friends who are attentive to their figure, but not willing to give up goodness. It is a dish with a fresh flavor, perfect in particular for those who love citrus fruits and their intense aroma, which combines well with the tender but not too tasty turkey meat.

The dish can be prepared in a few minutes without any effort but, for this reason, it must be done to perfection and I recommend you follow the photo-recipe that you find below step by step. The scallops, in fact, must remain soft and the sauce must set at the right point, in order to release its aroma and complete the dish perfectly.

Ingredients

4 slices turkey breast
1 golden onion
20 g butter
extra virgin olive oil to taste
Half a glass of white wine
2 lemons (untreated)
flour to taste
parsley to taste
salt to taste
black pepper to taste

PREPARATION

The preparation of TURKEY ESCALOPES WITH LEMON is very easy and fast. In a large pan, place the butter, a drizzle of oil, the finely chopped onion and a pinch of salt. Turn on the heat and let it wilt over low heat. In the meantime, dip the slices of turkey breast (remove excess fat) in the flour, remove the excess and set aside. When the onion is wilted, place the meat in a pan and brown it on both sides for 2-3 minutes, being careful not to burn the onion. You can remove it when adding the meat and put it back when it is browned. Deglaze with the wine and as soon as it has evaporated, season with salt and pepper. Add the juice of two lemons and a few finely chopped lemon zest (without the white part). Continue cooking over low heat until you get a smooth and homogeneous cream. If necessary, add a drop of water. When cooked, add the finely chopped parsley. Serve the turkey escalopes with lemon and enjoy them hot and creamy.
