Recipe: Italian-Style Rolled Turkey Cutlet

No Reviews
AuthorCategoryDifficultyBeginner

An original way to cook turkey! Basil, parmesan, mozzarella, cured meat (to make it even more Italian, I recommend brasaola but I didn't have any) cooked in a steamer for added lightness. For the side, it's just slices of zucchini also cooked in steam.

Yields2 Servings
Prep Time15 minsCook Time15 minsTotal Time30 mins
Ingredients
 2 Turkey cutlet
 Salt
 Pepper
 1 Egg yolk
 40 Parmesan
 4 Fresh basil
 1 Olive oil
 1 Water
 4 Sun-dried tomato
 4 Mozzarella
 2 Grison meat
 2 Zucchini
Directions
1

Blend together the parmesan, egg yolk, oil, water, and basil leaves.

2

Flatten the turkey cutlets (for me using a spatula), season with salt and pepper, and brush the cutlets with the first preparation of basil and parmesan.

3

Place on top a slice of cured meat, 1 dried tomato, 1 slice of mozzarella, then again a dried tomato and a slice of mozzarella. Roll the cutlet up, tucking in the sides if possible to prevent the mozzarella from leaking during cooking, secure the cutlet with toothpicks, then wrap it in plastic wrap (twice for me). Do the same with the second cutlet.

4

Wash the zucchini and slice it using a "razor" tool.

5

To finish, cook everything on two levels in your steamer for about fifteen minutes, and serve hot, making sure to remove the plastic wrap and present the sliced meat.

    I would like to make this recipe, but one thing intrigues me: do you have to cook the cutlets with plastic wrap? Doesn't it melt? Thank you for your response; my question may seem silly, but since I've never done it before.

    TOP GOOD It was very good. Steaming makes the meat super tender. But it's not easy to roll them. No complaints. My suggestion: I spread pesto directly on the cutlets.

    Italian-style rolled turkey cutlet Very good dish, my parents loved it! I cooked the meat in the skillet for about 15 minutes. This added more flavor to the dish. A richness of flavors!

    Very good and quick Easy to prepare, quick, with a good taste of Italy. My suggestion: I replaced the dried tomato with tomato paste and the cured meat with bresaola. Be sure to use wide and thin escalopes for easy rolling. Cook in a pan with basil olive oil and white wine to prevent the meat from drying out, on low heat with a lid for good cooking inside the rolls. Serve with pasta and tomato sauce with garlic paste.

    Super It was really great in terms of taste (I added more cured meats inside for more flavor) but the presentation is not quite there yet; it's not very easy to roll the cutlet!
