Sweet and Savory Cutlets Recipe

Sweet and Savory Cutlets Recipe

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry or Madeira (see Note)
  • 1 tablespoon miso, preferably dark (see Note)
  • 4 pitted prunes, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 8 ounces turkey cutlets
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 small shallot, chopped
  • 4 ounces white or cremini mushrooms, thickly sliced
  1. Combine water, orange juice, sherry (or Madeira) and miso in a medium bowl; whisk until smooth. Add prunes and rosemary; set aside.
  2. Place flour in a shallow dish. Season turkey with salt and pepper and lightly dredge in the flour, shaking off excess.
  3. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the turkey and cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  4. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in the pan over medium heat. Add shallot and mushrooms; cook, stirring, until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the miso mixture; cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
  5. Reduce heat to low and return the turkey and any accumulated juices to the pan. Simmer gently, spooning sauce over turkey, until heated through, about 1 minute.
