Turkey with Mushroom and Tarragon sauce image

I found this recipe in a magazine many years ago. It is tasty and low in calories. I like to serve it over rice or noodles.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb turkey breast, sliced (cutlets)
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
1/4 c onion, finely chopped
1/2 c dry white wine (optional)
3/4 c beef broth, reduced sodium, refrigerated, with the fat removed from the top
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/4-1/2 tsp pepper
2 tsp lemon juice, fresh
1/4 tsp tarragon, dried, crumbled

Steps:

  • 1. Dry the turkey cutlets with paper toweling. Cut into 3x1 inch strips.
  • 2. Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches if necessary, panfry the turkey for 30 seconds a side. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
  • 3. Saute mushrooms and onion in skillet over low heat for 3 minutes or until the mushrooms are soft. (you can add several TBS of water to prevent sticking if needed.) Add the wine.
  • 4. In a 2 cup measuring glass, stir the flour into the beef broth until smooth. Pour into skillet and stir. Add salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Lower heat and stir constantly until the mixture thickens slightly.
  • 5. Lower heat to very low. Stir in lemon juice and tarragon. Return turkey to skillet. Cook 1 to 2 minutes until turkey is done.
  • 6. Notes: I have used lemon juice concentrate instead of fresh lemon juice. If you prefer, you can flatten the turkey with a mallet before you begin cooking. If I'm not using wine, I add water or more broth to make up the volume.

Not a fan of tarragon, but the sauce was still good. The turkey was cooked perfectly.

The turkey was a bit dry, but the sauce was fantastic. I'll definitely be making the sauce again.

The turkey and sauce were both delicious, but I found the sauce to be a bit too rich for my taste. Next time, I'll try using less butter and cream.

The turkey came out perfectly cooked - moist and flavorful. The sauce was also delicious, with a nice balance of earthy mushrooms and fragrant tarragon.

I've made this turkey recipe for two Thanksgivings now and it's always a hit. The sauce is what really makes it special. It's so rich and flavorful without being too heavy.

The recipe was easy to follow and the end result was impressive. The turkey was juicy and tender, and the sauce was creamy and packed with umami. Definitely a keeper!

This turkey dish was an absolute delight! The mushroom and tarragon sauce added a rich and flavorful twist to the classic roasted turkey. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
