    Title: Turkey Schnitzel
    Categories: Turkey
    Yield: 2 Servings

    4 sl Turkey breast (1/2")
    - (3/4 lb total)
    2 tb Lemon juice
    1/4 c Olive oil or salad oil
    1/8 ts Salt
    1/8 ts Pepper
    1/3 c All-purpose flour
    1/3 c Parmesan cheese; grated
    2 tb Butter; up to 3 tb

    Some markets may sell sliced turkey breast. The alternative is to buy
    a half a turkey breast and slice off what you need for this recipe.
    The remainder of the breast can be roasted or poached to be used in
    sandwiches, casseroles, or salads.

    Place meat between two sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap and
    pound 1/4" thick with smooth side of mallet. Mix together lemon
    juice, oil, salt, and pepper. Place pounded turkey in a shallow pan
    (or plastic bag) and pour over lemon juice mixture; cover and
    refrigerate at least 30 minutes or as long as overnight.

    Drain liquid from turkey. Mix together flour and Parmesan cheese; coat
    turkey generously with mixture and shake off excess. Heat 2 tb butter
    in a wide frying pan over medium high heat. Quickly cook turkey
    slices until lightly browned on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes per side,
    adding more butter if needed.

    Mary's Variation:

    I have made turkey schnitzel before I found this recipe. I didn't use
    Parmesan and just marinated the meat in milk for about 30 minutes.
    Pat meat not quite diy, dredge in flour, then egg, then dried bread
    crumbs. I would use a combination of oil and butter to fry it and
    went for a little darker brown than is indicated here. This sure
    beats the price of veal and we think it's every bit as good.
