Ingredients
4 fillets of turkey steaks, about 1 ¼ pounds
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
3 red, ripe tomatoes, about 1 pound
3 tablespoons olive oil
¼ pound mushrooms, thinly sliced, about 2 cups
2 teaspoons finely minced garlic
½ teaspoon chopped dried rosemary
¼ cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped basil or parsley
2 tablespoons flour
Juice of ½ lemon
¼ cup finely chopped parsley
Preparation
- Step 1
Sprinkle turkey pieces on both sides with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Step 2
Core, peel and seed tomatoes. Cut into small cubes. There should be about two cups.
- Step 3
Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a saucepan and add mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until mushrooms give up their liquid. Cook further until liquid evaporates. Add garlic and rosemary and stir. Add wine and cook about one minute.
- Step 4
Add tomato, salt and pepper and cook five minutes. Add two tablespoons of the butter and the basil or parsley and stir. There should be about 2 ¼ cups.
- Step 5
Meanwhile, coat turkey pieces with flour and shake off excess.
- Step 6
Heat remaining oil and butter in a skillet large enough to hold the pieces in one layer. Put the slices in the skillet and cook on one side until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn slices and continue cooking about 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with lemon juice.
- Step 7
Spoon tomato sauce over a warm or hot serving dish and top with the turkey slices. Serve sprinkled with parsley.
