Ingredients

• 4 pieces Turkey cutlets
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 medium Yellow bell pepper
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Season the turkey cutlets on both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the turkey cutlets and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

Roughly chop the red and yellow bell peppers and place them in a blender or food processor.

Step 4

Add the Greek yogurt, fresh cilantro, lime juice, honey, water, and a pinch of salt to the blender. Blend until smooth to create the cool pepper sauce. Adjust seasoning as needed.

Step 5

In the same skillet used to cook the turkey, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and briefly warm the sauce over low heat, stirring occasionally. Do not let it boil.

Step 6

Plate the turkey cutlets and drizzle the warm pepper sauce over the top. Garnish with extra cilantro if desired.

Step 7

Serve immediately with your favorite side dish, such as steamed vegetables or a light salad.
