Pepper Crusted Turkey Or Chicken Cutlets With Chutney Sauce Food

PEPPER CRUSTED TURKEY (OR CHICKEN) CUTLETS WITH CHUTNEY SAUCE

Steps:

• Crush peppercorns with a mortar with pestle or in a spice grinder until coarse. (If you have neither, place the peppercorns in a plastic ball and gently crush them with a rolling pin.) Pat peppercorns on both sides of turkey cutlets. Wrap cutlets flat in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
• (Note: If you are using chicken, pound to even thinness prior to crusting them with pepper. ).
• In large non-stick skillet, over medium heat, saute poultry in olive oil 4 to 5 minutes per side or until no longer pink in center. Remove cutlets from pan and keep warm.
• Combine the broth, ginger and 3 tablespoons of finely minced scallion bottoms (white and light green part) together and put into the skillet. Stir scraping the bits from the pan. Cook for just a minute.
• Add the chutney and brandy and cook until warmed. If you like, you can chop the mango chunks in the chutney in advance.
• Plate each cutlet and place one quarter of sauce on top. Garnish with a small sprinkle of chopped scallion greens (tops).

CRISPY HERB-CRUSTED CHICKEN CUTLETS

Steps:

• Put the flour in a wide, shallow bowl and season with a pinch of kosher salt and pepper. In a second shallow bowl, mix the milk and egg. In a third shallow bowl, combine the panko, oregano, rosemary and thyme with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Bread the cutlets by dredging them first in the seasoned flour, then dunking them in the egg/milk mixture and finally by pressing them into the herby breadcrumbs so they are completely coated. Set aside.
• Heat the butter and vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted and the oil is hot, add the cutlets and cook until golden and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle over the flaky sea salt. Serve immediately.
