Ingredients
- 1½pounds turkey breast (skinless and boneless)
- 2tablespoons sweet butter
- 1tablespoon vegetable oil
- ¾cup all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1cup dry white wine
- 1lemon
- 1cup grated mozzarella cheese
- 3slices prosciutto
- 3pats butter
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Step 2
Cut the turkey breast, lengthwise, into three fillets of roughly equal thickness (each should be about half an inch thick).
- Step 3
Melt butter and oil in a skillet large enough to hold all the fillets. In a bowl combine flour and salt and pepper to taste.
- Step 4
When the butter foam stops sizzling, dredge the turkey fillets in the flour, shake off excess and place in the pan. Saute them for about 2 to 3 minutes a side. Remove and keep them warm in the oven.
- Step 5
Deglaze the pan with the wine and juice from half the lemon. Let liquid reduce by a third. Pour a few tablespoons of the liquid into the bottom of a baking dish large enough to hold all 3 fillets.
- Step 6
Lay the fillets in the baking dish. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over them, then lay on the prosciutto. Put a pat of butter over each and place them in a preheated 400-degree oven for about five minutes. Before serving pour any remaining liquid from the dish over the fillets and finish off with freshly squeezed lemon.
