Turkey Breast Grenobloise
- 8 slices fresh boneless turkey breast, about 1 1/2 pounds total weight
- Salt to taste, if desired
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 4 tablespoons water
- 1/4 cup flour
- 4 cups fresh bread crumbs
- 6 to 8 tablespoons corn, peanut or vegetable oil
- 8 thin seeded lemon slices
- 3 tablespoons drained capers
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
- Place each turkey breast slice on a sheet of plastic wrap and fold the wrap over to enclose the slice.
- Place the wrapped turkey slice on a flat surface and pat lightly with a flat mallet to flatten slightly.
- Unwrap the slices and sprinkle on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Beat the eggs with the water and pour the mixture onto a platter.
- Pour the flour onto a second platter and the bread crumbs onto a third.
- Dip the slices first in the flour and shake off the excess.
- Dip the slices in the egg mixture to coat well.
- Dip them in bread crumbs to coat well on both sides.
- Pat lightly to make the crumbs adhere.
- Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a skillet and add two breaded turkey-breast slices.
- Cook until they are golden brown on one side, about two to three minutes.
- Turn and cook two to three minutes on the second side.
- Transfer the slices as they cook to a warm platter.
- Continue cooking the remaining slices, adding a little more oil as necessary, until all the slices are cooked on both sides.
- Use a minimum amount of oil.
- Garnish the center of each turkey slice with a lemon slice.
- Sprinkle the capers and parsley over all.
