This is a recipe I found in a magazine about 20 years ago. It was 'misplaced' for years and I just found it. I remember this being a delicious dish, perfect for summertime. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package fresh turkey cutlets |
salt |
3 medium tomatoes |
1/2 cup pitted ripe olives |
1/2 cup pimento stuffed olive |
1 tablespoon capers |
1 tablespoon cider vinegar |
1 teaspoon sugar |
olive oil or salad oil |
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried basil |
basil leaves (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Prepare outdoor grill for barbecuing. 2. With a meat mallet, pound each turkey cutlet to 1/4-inch thickness; rub cutlets with 1 tsp salt and set aside. 3. Prepare tomato-olive relish: chop tomatoes and olives; place in a bowl; stir in capers, vinegar, sugar, 1 tablespoon olive or salad oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. 4. In a small bowl, mix minced basil and 1/4 cup olive or salad oil. 5. Place cutlets on grill over medium heat; brush with oil mixture; cook 5 minutes or until lightly browned and tender, turning cutlets occasionally and brushing with oil mixture, cook until no longer pink inside. 6. Place turkey cutlets on platter; top with tomato-olive relish and garnish with basil leaves. |
