Lemon Turkey Cutlets


I always thought of turkey as you have it on Thanksgiving, which is not my favorite. I really enjoy it once a year on Thanksgiving, but that is usually enough turkey to last me the whole year. My husband feels the same way. Then a couple years ago I decided to give Turkey Cutlets a try. Can't remember why I decided to be so brave! Turns out both my husband and I like them! We have a couple different trusted recipes we use often. This lemon one is probably my husbands favorite. And really, probably mine as well. With only a few pantry staples and 15 minutes these can be on the table!

This weekend is my son's 6th birthday. With multiple parties coming up, I have a feeling my next few posts will be dessert related :)

Lemon Turkey Cutlets
2 Turkey Cutlets
2 Tbls Lemon Juice
1 Tbls Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp Dijon mustard
Lemon Pepper seasoning
Olive Oil



Heat pan over med-high heat. Drizzle with a little bit of olive oil. Sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning over both sides of turkey. Cook turkey for about 10 minutes, turning half way. While cooking, you can mix together the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce and mustard. Once turkey is almost done, pour sauce into pan. Cook for just a couple minutes, and you are done!

Can't really get any easier for a low calorie, but really tasty dinner. I served mine last night with a little sauteed zucchini, and it was a great spring feeling meal.

  2. That would make a great sandwich - maybe on a ciabatta roll with a little lettuce, and tomato!

  3. I love meat cutlets. They make such a nice presentation and taste so good. The sauce you used here sounds delicious.
