Turkey Parmigiana

Turkey Parmigiana

When there are Turkey Thigh & Drummers available locally we’ll always partake and try to think of something unusual to do with them. We usually get 4 or 5 meals from one pack, which at £4.65 makes them pretty good value for us.

I cut steaks from the thick end of the thigh which Sue coated and fried.

Ingredients:-

 4 thick Turkey thigh steaks
1 Egg, whisked
Seasoned Gluten free flour ( We added Salt, pepper and Onion Salt to season)
1 large Onion, chopped
2 cloves of Garlic, crushed
½ a tube of Tomato Purée
1 tin of chopped Tomatoes
1 tsp of mixed Herbs
Italian style grated Cheese
Grated Mozzarella and Cheddar mix
Mixed Herbs to garnish 
Oil to fry

Method:-

(1) Dredge the Turkey steaks in the flour.
(2) Dunk in the Egg wash and the dredge in the Bread crumbs.
(3) Fry in a little Oil until golden brown on both side and set aside on kitchen paper to drain.
(5) Fry the Onion in a little oil until soft.
(6) Season with Salt and Pepper.
(7) Add the crushed Garlic.
(8) Add the tinned Tomatoes and Tomato Purée and simmer for about 10 minutes.
(9) Add a little water if the sauce seems too thick.
(10) Add the mixed herbs and simmer for a further 30 minutes.
(11) Pre heat the grill.
(12) Add 2 Turkey steak per serving to an oven proof bowl.
(13) Pour the Tomato based sauce over the crispy coated steaks.
(14) Add a good amount of Grated Mozzarella and Cheddar mix and sprinkle with the grated Italian style Cheese and mixed Herbs.
(15) Place under the grill until the Cheese has melted and the Turkey is evenly heated.

We served ours with hand cut chips, Peas and a little home made Coleslaw.

1/2 Tsp of Garlic Powder
½ Tsp of Onion Powder
¼ Tsp of Fresh ground Black Pepper
½ Tsp of Cayenne Pepper
1 Tbsp of Olive Oil
3 Tbsp of (Home Made) Garlic Margarine

Method:-

(1) Pound the Chicken Breasts with a meat mallet to about 1/2” thick. (Think of a Politician who has do you and your family wrong!).
(2) Line a tray with Parchment paper.
(3) Add the Chicken Breasts and rub with Olive Oil.
(4) Combine all the other ingredients except the Garlic Margarine.
(5) Rub into the Chicken making sure everything is evenly coated.
(6) Place in the oven at 180c for 15 minutes.
(7) Pre-heat the grill.
(8) Add the Garlic Margarine to a pan. Drain off the cooking juices from the Chicken and add to the pan.

(10) Place the Chicken under the grill for 2 to 3 minutes until caramelised.

We served ours with hand cut chips, Sweetcorn and Asparagus wrapped in Bacon. The Asparagus is obviously coming to the end of season and was really woody. But apart from that, this was really good.
