Preparation

Step 1
Preheat a charcoal grill until quite hot. The coals should be placed quite close to the grill because the meat will only be seared.
Step 2
Place each turkey steak between sheets of clear plastic wrap. Pound lightly and evenly with a flat mallet or meat pounder to make slices about ¼-inch thick.
Step 3
Season the turkey with salt and pepper. Brush both sides with olive oil and sprinkle both sides with sage.
Step 4
Heat the butter until melted. Add the lemon juice, cumin, Worcestershire, salt, pepper and chives. Blend well. Keep warm.
Step 5
Place the steaks on the grill and cook on both sides for about 2 minutes to a side or until done. Do not overcook. Transfer the steaks to a serving dish. Pour the chive butter over them and serve.
