Natural Turkey Cutlet

It is quite problematic to buy ready-made turkey mince, it is expensive and not as popular as other types. But the absence of allergic reactions (as happens with chicken meat), as well as the excess fat content of pork, make turkey meat a frequent choice for cooking main dishes. Therefore, you will have to spend a little time and cook it yourself.

We wash the turkey fillet, dry it and cut it into pieces to fit into the hole of the meat grinder. Ham is also cut into pieces. Peel the onion and cut into several small pieces. We pass meat, ham and onion through a meat grinder, alternating the supply of products so that the minced meat immediately turns out homogeneous. The minced meat turns out to be tender and soft, so we do not use soaked bread in this recipe.

We drive an egg into it, add salt, ground pepper and any spices to taste. Mix the minced meat with all the ingredients until smooth. To better connect the products, you can slightly interfere with a fork, and then with your hands.

Preheat the frying pan with vegetable oil to a hot state. And at the same time turn on the oven at 150 degrees. With our hands soaked in water, we form oblong cutlets and put them in a frying pan so that they do not touch each other. Fry on both sides until golden brown (about 4 minutes on each side).

Cover the almost finished cutlets with a lid and send them to a warm oven. We keep them inside for about 15 minutes, this time is necessary for the cutlets to soften, become tender and fully cooked in the middle.

We take the finished cutlets out of the oven and serve them to the table immediately, hot and with any side dish. They are best combined with potatoes, spaghetti or stewed vegetables.

Just before serving, pour the cutlets with the melted butter remaining in the pan. Finely chop the greens and sprinkle the cutlets.

Bon appetit!
