Turkey Cutlet Sandwiches With Smoked Paprika Mayo And Roasted Bell Peppers Recipes

SAUTéED TURKEY CUTLETS WITH ASPARAGUS AND RED BELL PEPPERS

Steps:

• Cut turkey into 4 pieces. Place 1 piece, cut side up, between pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper. Use flat side of meat mallet, pounder or rolling pin to gently pound each turkey piece to 1/4-inch thickness. Repeat with remaining turkey pieces.
• Sprinkle turkey with salt and pepper. Place flour in shallow bowl. Coat turkey lightly with flour, dusting off excess.
• In 10-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high until shimmering and hot. Add turkey and cook about 3 minutes or until lightly browned. Flip and cook 1 minute longer. Remove turkey from skillet and place on plate. Cover tightly with foil.
• Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to skillet and stir in asparagus and bell pepper. Sauté 1 minute. Add broth and heat to boiling. Boil uncovered 2 minutes. Stir in lemon peel and lemon juice. When liquid returns to boiling, remove from heat. Beat in butter, 1 piece at a time, with wire whisk, adding the next piece only after the first has been completely beaten in and melted. When all of the butter has been beaten in, stir in parsley.
• Place 1 turkey piece on each serving plate. Use kitchen tongs to remove asparagus and pepper strips from sauce and place next to cutlet. Spoon sauce over turkey and vegetables.

TURKEY-KALE SANDWICHES WITH PEPPER MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil and the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook, turning occasionally, until crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, leaving the drippings in the pan.
• Season the turkey cutlets on both sides with the paprika, thyme and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Increase the skillet heat to medium high. Add the turkey and cook, turning once, until just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; reserve the pan drippings.
• Mix the mayonnaise and chopped peppers in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper and set aside. Put the kale in a medium bowl; add a pinch of salt and the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and massage with your fingers until bright green and softened, about 1 minute.
• Brush the bread with some of the reserved bacon drippings, then spread with the pepper mayonnaise. Mound the kale on 4 bread slices. Cut the turkey into pieces so that it will fit on the bread and layer on top of the kale. Break the bacon in half and add to the sandwiches. Close with the remaining bread slices. Serve with chips.
