    Step 1.

    How to put out turkey escalope in a frying pan? Very simple! First, prepare the necessary ingredients. You can use a whole large turkey breast fillet and cut it into plates about 1.5 cm thick. Or buy ready-made sliced escalopes. This will speed up the cooking process. In addition to these spices, you can add your own to taste.

    Step 3.

    Sprinkle the turkey with a mixture of spices on both sides.

    Step 4.

    Lightly beat the meat with a hammer on one side. At the same time, try not to damage the integrity of the meat. I like to chop off meat when spices have already been applied to it, but you can do the opposite: first chop off the meat, and then sprinkle it with spices.

    Step 5.

    Heat vegetable oil and butter in a frying pan over medium heat. You can fry escalopes only in vegetable oil. The combination of creamy and vegetable gives the finished dish a delicate creamy taste. You can use any vegetable oil suitable for frying. If you have a grill pan, you can cook on it - you will also get a beautiful pattern on the meat.

    Put the prepared escalopes in the pan and fry for 3-4 minutes on one side.

    Step 7.

    When a ruddy crust appears on the meat, turn the fillet to the other side and fry for about 3 more minutes. Properly cooked escalopes should retain juiciness. The meat should turn from pink to white, and if you pierce the escalope with a knife, the juice from it should flow transparent.

    Step 8.

    Serve the escalopes with a salad of fresh vegetables and herbs or with any other side dish. Enjoy your meal!
