Turkey Breast With Fresh Tomato Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Let the turkey breasts stand at room temperature for 1 hour prior to cooking.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack.
• Pat the turkey breasts dry and season heavily with salt and pepper all over. Put the olive oil in a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Sear the breasts skin-side down until light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip the breasts over and add the garlic, thyme, rosemary and 4 tablespoons of the butter to the skillet. Once the butter has melted, use a spoon to baste the turkey breasts with the herb and garlic infused butter for 30 seconds.
• Transfer the breasts to the rack on the baking sheet, pour the butter and herb mixture over the breasts and cook, basting every 15 minutes, until the internal temperature of the thickest part of the breast reaches 160 degrees F, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Transfer to a cutting board, tent with aluminum foil and rest for 15 minutes.
• Deglaze the skillet that the breasts were seared in with the white wine over medium-high heat, then reduce until almost dry, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the turkey stock and reduce by 90 percent, another 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and slowly whisk in the remaining 6 tablespoons butter, keeping the mixture creamy and emulsified. Once all the butter is incorporated, add the capers, parsley, lemon zest and shallot. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Slice the turkey and transfer it to a platter. Pour some sauce over the slices and serve the rest of the sauce on the side. Garnish with fresh herb sprigs if desired.

Steps:

• Sprinkle turkey pieces on both sides with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Core, peel and seed tomatoes. Cut into small cubes. There should be about two cups.
• 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.
• 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 1/4 cups.
• Meanwhile, coat turkey pieces with flour and shake off excess.
• 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.
• Spoon tomato sauce over a warm or hot serving dish and top with the turkey slices. Serve sprinkled with parsley.

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, salt if desired and pepper. Add the cutlets, two at a time and shake to coat. In a skillet, cook cutlets in butter for 2-3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. , Meanwhile, in a skillet, saute mushrooms in oil until tender. Add garlic and rosemary; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, wine or broth, brown sugar, salt if desired and pepper; cook and stir for 5 minutes. Stir in butter and basil. Serve cutlets with sauce. Sprinkle with lemon juice and parsley.

Steps:

• To make the sauce, core the tomatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Put the tomatoes in a food processor and blend until coarsely chopped. There should be about 4 cups.
• Heat the oil in a skillet and add the garlic. Cook briefly but do not brown. Add the tomatoes, red pepper flakes, oregano, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

• Add the garlic, stir and add the wine. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the wine is evaporated. Add the tomato sauce, oregano, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the lasagna in salted water, according to instructions on the package, adding the lasagna strips one at a time. Cook until tender. Add the cold water to cool. Drain, and spread the strips one at a time on a damp cloth.
• Lightly grease a 2-quart oblong baking dish. Add a layer of lasagna.
• Beat the ricotta with the hot water to make it spreadable. Spread about one-third of the ricotta over the lasagna. Spread a layer of the meat sauce over this and sprinkle on about a quarter of the Parmesan cheese.
• Continue making layers, ending with a layer of lasagna. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan cheese. Pour the melted butter over all and bake for 15 minutes or until the lasagna is piping hot and bubbling.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Saute onion, tomato, basil, and garlic in hot oil until the onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Break ground turkey into small pieces and add to pot; season with Italian seasoning and oregano. Cook and stir mixture until turkey is completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Stir tomato sauce into the turkey mixture; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the sauce has thickened slightly, 20 to 25 minutes.
