Ingredients

• 4 pieces Turkey cutlets
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium Shallot, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 200 grams Cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Fresh tarragon, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Season both sides of the turkey cutlets with salt and ground black pepper.

Step 2

Dredge the turkey cutlets lightly in flour, shaking off any excess.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Cook the turkey cutlets in batches, for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

Step 5

Add the remaining olive oil and butter to the skillet. Lower the heat to medium.

Step 6

Saute the chopped shallot and minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 7

Add the sliced cremini mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 8

Pour in the chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to deglaze. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 9

Stir in the heavy cream and let the sauce thicken, about 3 minutes.

Step 10

Add the chopped tarragon and a teaspoon of lemon juice to the sauce. Stir to combine.

Step 11

Return the turkey cutlets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.

Step 12

Serve the turkey cutlets with the tarragon mushroom sauce drizzled on top. Enjoy!
