CHIPOTLE TURKEY CUTLETS

My adaptation of a Cooking Light recipe that captures the essence of a long cooking mole in under thirty minutes. The sauce is spicy rich and delicious. You might be tempted to make this hotter by adding extra chipotle but that will throw off the balance with the other spices in the dish.

Categories     turkey     Side     Thanksgiving     Dinner     Pistachio     Pumpkin

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil)
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 medium onion, chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
1 Golden Delicious apple, unpeeled, finely chopped
1 small yellow squash or 6 pattypan squash, chopped
Salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 cup shelled natural pistachios, chopped
4 purchased pumpkin muffins
2 cups chicken stock
1 package turkey breast cutlets
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup dry white wine or beer, whichever you have on hand
1 or 2 chipotle chilies in adobo, finely chopped
2 scallions, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the EVOO, once around the pan, and 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts into the oil, add the onions, celery, apples, and squash. Season with salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning. Sauté the vegetables and fruit for 5 minutes. Add the chopped nuts and then crumble in all of the muffins. Moisten the stuffing with 1 cup of the chicken stock. Adjust the seasoning, turn off the heat, and reserve the stuffing, tented loosely with foil.
  • Heat a second large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the cutlets with salt and pepper. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of EVOO to the skillet and cook the cutlets for 6 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through. Transfer the meat to a platter and cover it with foil. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium low. Add the flour to the butter and whisk together for 2 minutes, or until the flour smells nutty and the color is medium brown. Whisk in the wine or beer and cook it for 30 seconds. Whisk in the remaining cup of chicken stock and bring it to a bubble. Stir the chipotle and scallions into the gravy and season with salt.
  • To serve, top a mound of the muffin stuffin' with the turkey cutlets and a ladle or two of the gravy.

Tips:

  • To ensure the turkey cutlets are evenly cooked, use a meat mallet to flatten them to an even thickness before cooking.
  • For a crispy crust, coat the turkey cutlets in a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper before searing them in a hot skillet.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the turkey cutlets in a grill pan over medium heat.
  • To make a quick and easy chipotle sauce, combine chipotle peppers in adobo, mayonnaise, sour cream, and lime juice in a blender or food processor until smooth.
  • Serve the chipotle turkey cutlets with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, rice, or salad.
