Turkey Cutlets with Cherry Sauce

Our Turkey Cutlets with Cherry Sauce recipe provides a welcome weeknight alternative to chicken cutlets: The cutlets cook quickly, are healthy, and have a great flavor. We cooked the cutlets over medium-high heat without moving them so that they browned a bit. Only one side needed to be browned; if both sides were browned, the meat was liable to overcook. Once the meat was cooked, we used the same pan to prepare the sauce. We combined the tart flavor of dried cherries with sharp shallots, port, and orange juice for a deep, complex sauce. A little fresh rosemary added an herbaceous note that tied the sauce together.

Serves 4

One cutlet per person makes a skimpy serving, so we call for a total of six to serve four people. Add rice pilaf or mashed potatoes and a green vegetable, such as our Nutty Green Beans.

Dear Home Cook,

If I were new to CooksCountry.com, I might think, "It's easy to get free recipes on the Internet. What makes your recipes different?" Well, unlike recipes from blogs, message boards, and other recipe sites, our recipes are exhaustively tested by our team of full-time test cooks until they offer consistently great results. That means fried chicken with a crunchy coating and moist meat, a low-fat recipe makeover for macaroni and cheese that’s as creamy and cheesy as the full-fat version, and fork-tender slow cooker pot roast.

We're obsessive in our quest to find and foolproof the best of American home cooking, from fuss-free weeknight dinners, to updated, simplified versions of regional specialties, to slow cooker and make ahead meals. CooksCountry.com is the only place you can find every foolproof recipe published in Cook’s Country magazine since 2005, plus objective ratings and test results from both Cook’s Country and Cook’s Illustrated for cookware and supermarket ingredients.

Let me make a simple, no-nonsense offer. Try out our website FREE for a 14-Day, No-Hassle Trial Offer. I’m pretty confident that CooksCountry.com will quickly become an invaluable resource for everything from a quick Tuesday supper to your next get-together with family and friends.

Thanks for your consideration,

Christopher Kimball
