Sauteed Turkey with Prosciutto, Sage And Chanterelles
2 pounds turkey breasts, cut into ½-inch-thick slices
Sea salt and ground black pepper
2 tablespoons sunflower oil
2 medium yellow onions, julienned
3 cups sliced chanterelle mushrooms (or other mushrooms)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons white wine
4 sprigs fresh sage
1 cup thinly sliced prosciutto or dried ham
Season the turkey on one side with salt and pepper.
In a large saute pan over high, heat the oil. Add the turkey and saute until lightly browned on the first side, about 3 minutes. Turn the turkey slices and cook 1 minute more. Transfer to a platter to rest.
Return the pan to the heat. Add the onions, mushrooms and butter. Cook until the onions just begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the wine to deglaze the pan, scraping to loosen any stuck bits. Add the sage and prosciutto and cook for 2 minutes. Season with salt.
Divide the turkey slices among 4 warmed plates. Top each with the onions, mushrooms and prosciutto and serve immediately.
Serves four.
Cook's note: "This dish is a quick alternative to a whole roasted bird," Eric Skokan writes in his new cookbook, "Farm, Fork, Food." "The slices of breast cook up quickly and stay very tender. I love to feature our heritage turkeys and our handmade dried hams this way."
