PAN-SEARED TURKEY CUTLETS WITH ASIAN-INSPIRED ORANGE SAUCE



Pan-Seared Turkey Cutlets With Asian-Inspired Orange Sauce image

This is a much yummier and healthier way to feed a craving for Chinese food. We enjoyed these lean pan-seared turkey cutlets seasoned with savory spices and ginger and then drizzled with a sweet and spicy orange-soy-ginger sauce. Serve with steamed vegetables and brown rice, and you have a healthy alternative to ordering not-so-healthy takeout.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 turkey breast cutlets
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons honey or 2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup scallion, sliced thin (optional)

Steps:

  • Season both sides of turkey cutlets with 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoons onion powder, 1/2 teaspoons ginger, 1/4 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoons black pepper. Allow to dry marinate at room temperature for up to 20 minutes.
  • Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
  • While skillet and oil are heating up, combine sauce ingredients. In a medium bowl, whisk together orange juice, agave nectar, soy sauce, 1/4 teaspoons garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoons onion powder, 1/4 teaspoons ginger and cornstarch. Set aside.
  • When olive oil is glistening hot and fragrant, add turkey cutlets. Sear for 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Remove to a serving plate and cover to keep warm.
  • Pour sauce into the skillet. With a wooden spoon (as not to scratch the skillet), stir sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the surface of the skillet. The sauce will begin to thicken. Once it reaches a gravy-like consistency, remove from heat.
  • Pour sauce over turkey cutlets or serve in a small gravy dish/pitcher.
  • If desired, garnish with sliced scallions.

Time 45m

1 small boneless, skinless turkey breast half (about 2 pounds)
Coarse salt and ground pepper

CANTONESE-STYLE TURKEY



Cantonese-Style Turkey image

In this vaguely Cantonese turkey, the bird is roasted beneath a rich glaze of fermented soybean paste, garlic, ginger, soy sauce and alliums galore, then served with roasted potatoes basted in the sauce and drippings of the bird. It came to The Times from Dr. Carolyn Ling, a physician in Carmel, Ind., whose grandfather came to the United States in the late 19th century from southern China and set up an import-export firm in Manhattan. There were other investments as well. Her grandfather, Dr. Ling told me, had "interests in restaurants." Those interests played a big role in the Ling family's early Thanksgiving feasts: They ate takeout. Dr. Ling's father, a doctor who fought at Anzio in Italy in 1944 and earned a Bronze Star, loved those meals. When Dr. Ling was young, she said, her father urged her mother, a passionate home cook and reader of Gourmet, to emulate them in her holiday cooking at home in Forest Hills, Queens. The result is remarkably easy to prepare, phenomenally juicy, and rich, Dr. Ling said, "with the umami of soy and turkey fat."

Time 6h

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 12- to 14-pound turkey
4 tablespoons neutral oil (such as canola)
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 3-inch knob ginger, peeled and minced
6 scallions, thinly sliced
2 leeks, thinly sliced (white and light green parts only)
4 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1/3 cup soybean sauce (preferably Lee Kum Kee brand)
1 2-inch strip dried orange or tangerine peel (or use 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed orange juice)
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1/2 cup rice wine or sherry
1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
3 1/2 pounds small Yukon Gold potatoes, halved
Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Remove turkey from refrigerator and pat dry with paper towels. Place on a rack in a roasting pan and allow turkey to come to room temperature while you prepare the sauce.
  • Swirl 3 tablespoons oil into a wok or large Dutch oven and set over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until golden, about 3 minutes. Add scallions, leeks and celery and cook, stirring often, until vegetables soften and cook down, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Add soybean sauce, orange peel, sugar, rice wine or sherry, white pepper, soy sauce and oyster sauce to the vegetable mixture, along with 2 cups water. Turn heat to high and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and allow mixture to simmer and thicken, 30 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool 20 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Spoon 1 cup of the sauce over turkey and spoon 2 tablespoons into its cavity. Tuck the tips of the wings under the bird and truss its legs together with kitchen string. Pour remaining sauce and 2 cups water into roasting pan and transfer to oven. Roast turkey, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
  • Reduce oven to 325 degrees. Baste turkey with pan juices, and tent it with foil. Continue roasting another 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours, basting every 30 minutes with pan juices, until a thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 165 degrees. If pan starts to look dry, add hot water or turkey or chicken stock, if you have any, 1 cup at a time.
  • Transfer turkey to a cutting board or platter and let rest at least 30 minutes before carving. Pour pan drippings into a small pot, adding enough warm water or stock to equal 1 cup, and keep warm on the stove.
  • Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees. Grease a large sheet pan with 1 tablespoon oil, and arrange halved potatoes on the pan, cut side down. Season with salt and black pepper, and slide potatoes into the oven. Cook, undisturbed, until potatoes are tender and cut sides are nicely browned and crisped, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove pan from the oven, drizzle reserved drippings all over potatoes, toss and return to the oven to finish cooking, 5 minutes longer. Serve potatoes with turkey.

Tips:

  • Choose the right turkey cutlets: Look for cutlets that are about 1/2-inch thick and have a nice, even shape. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Pound the turkey cutlets: This will help them tenderize and cook more evenly. You can use a meat mallet or a rolling pin to do this.
  • Season the turkey cutlets: Be generous with the salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Cook the turkey cutlets over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the cutlets and keep them juicy on the inside.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan: If you are cooking multiple cutlets, make sure to cook them in batches so that they have enough room to cook evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the turkey cutlets: They are done cooking when they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the turkey cutlets rest before serving: This will help them to retain their juices and stay moist.

Conclusion:

These Asian-inspired pan-seared turkey cutlets with maple-soy sauce are a delicious and easy meal that can be on the table in under 30 minutes. The turkey cutlets are tender and juicy, and the maple-soy sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and savory. Serve these cutlets with rice, noodles, or vegetables for a complete meal.
