On those occasions when I serve meat, I like this recipe. It isn't exactly how I would make it but it is pretty close and I am too lazy to type out the whole recipe...:p


TURKEY CUTLET PARMESAN
Printed from COOKS.COM

1 pkg. turkey cutlets, about 5 pieces
1 pkg. grated Mozzarella cheese
1 c. Italian bread crumbs
1 egg, well beaten
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
Chopped parsley
Pepper
1 c. Italian tomato sauce or olive oil
Chopped garlic (optional)

Beat eggs well, dunk turkey cutlets in egg mixture until well covered. Dredge cutlets in bread crumb, cheese mixture on both sides. Warm skillet with oil, drop cutlets in skillet. Fry until light golden. Place in baking dish that has 1/2 of tomato sauce in it. Spread Mozzarella cheese on top of meat, add tomato sauce and sprinkle with chopped parsley (chopped garlic), pepper. Bake in oven at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes. Serve with your favorite pasta.

I usually omit tomato sauce, preferring to have butter and Parmesan cheese on the pasta and a squeeze of lemon juice on the turkey. Goes well with a salad and glass of white zinfandel. If you are not having tomato sauce, then after frying check the meat to see it is cooked through, season to taste and skip the baking part. Serve on a bed of noodles. Angel hair pasta is pretty good with this.

If you're trying to be healthier consider substituting buffalo/bison for beef. It is actually leaner than chicken, pork, and even some types of fish (70% less fat than beef) and flavor wise, I think it is better. It has a little bit of a smokey flavor.

Also, most bison is free range organic, just because of how it is raised, so you don't have to worry about eating a bunch of hormones with your steak.

Exactly! I buy a whole buffalo every year...not only is it healthier, it is infact much tastier too!

I'm into food. I like to do fancy cooking, and I'm interested in food science.

[Madhuri]

Yeah, I read your post in the locked threads....quite informative, I didnt know the other side of Soy, I always thought its good to have Soy milk....

oh, btw, whats fancy cooking? :confused:

:D

[Admin]

Fancy cooking... well... I'd say the stuff you see on Iron Chef, but I don't know if you know what that is in india... just fancy. You know, like from an expensive restaurant. Presentation, all that.

[Madhuri]

I think I get it.....:) Thanks!

[miss tenderness]

Its aprox 400-500 pounds of meat of various cuts and design, so, I store it in a large freezer and over the year I prepare it for family and friends, and I share some with family and friends so, all in all, I buy one in fall, and seem to just run out around that time every year.

It would be an awesome job!

That's incredible Stan. What does a buffalo cost, if you don't mind answering? That's a lot of meat. You must have a huge freezer. Is the buffalo raised on a farm or or is it free ranging, if that is the proper word? Is it only steaks or do they grind some for burgers? How does the taste compare regular beef? Sorry for the wquestions, but it sounds fascinating. And delicious.

[Admin]

The words virgil I think would be wild or farmed. The farmed ones for instance are usually still free ranged in that they are left to pasture and eat grass, but they're still farmed in that they belong to someone and are purposefully raised.

That would different from cows who'd spend more of their life in barns, in pens, eating hay out of troughs.

If you want to get a taste of buffalo, two chain restaurants I know carry it. Ruby Tuesdays has a bison burger (very good, my favorite burger). Smokey Bones does as well (haven't tried theirs).

The farmer I know charges me 2$ a pound regardless of cut, so its very price efficient (I think that is below normal sale price though). The freezer in question is quite large...I actually have two...one for the buffalo and one for additional freezer items (perogies, bread, etc). They are farmed but...they are pasture raised...so I'm gueesing free range? There are steaks, roasts, ribs, burger (I end up with a fair amount of burger though, because I make sure to clean up the trimmings as best as possible) As to beef, it is similar but juicier, with a more intense flavour, but it can sometimes be tougher if not prepared properly.

Its and awesome beef alternative!

also...I am not sure of your area, but I think Rosies also carries the buffalo burger.

[Madhuri]

Stan, you really buy a whole Bison?? I thought you were just saying so...:)

I've had a buffalo burger in a restaurant. I just didn't know you could buy a whole buffalo. It does sound like you get a great price. I assume that's Canadian dollars. But 400-500 punds is an incredible amount. You must have a lot of people help you eat that. That's like almost two pounds per day everyday of the year.
