Juicy turkey cutlets in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 50 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make juicy turkey cutlets in a frying pan? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. The milk should be at room temperature, so remove it from the refrigerator in advance. If desired, you can add onions to the cutlets for juiciness. It will need to be peeled, cut into small cubes and fried for 1 tbsp. l. vegetable oil until golden brown. I don’t add onions, but even without it the cutlets turn out quite juicy and tasty.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour semolina into milk and leave to swell for 10 minutes. The semolina will swell and absorb all the moisture.

3. STEP 3

   

   Place the minced turkey in a bowl, add the swollen semolina, and break the egg. Season everything with salt and pepper. If you wish, you can add chopped dill or parsley to the cutlets, as well as fried onions.

4. STEP 4

   

   Knead the minced meat thoroughly with your hands until smooth. Gather the minced meat into a ball several times and beat it forcefully on the bottom of the bowl. This will make the minced meat soft and airy.

5. STEP 5

   

   Pour semolina for breading into a shallow plate. Instead of semolina for breading, you can also use breadcrumbs or a special ready-made mixture for breading.

6. STEP 6

   

   With wet hands, form the minced meat into medium-sized cutlets and roll them on all sides in semolina. Cutlets do not need to be rolled in semolina. But thanks to semolina, a golden crispy crust forms on the cutlets during frying. If you want a softer cutlet texture, you don't need to bread them in any way.

7. STEP 7

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan, place the cutlets and fry over medium heat until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Then turn the cutlets over to the other side and fry until golden brown.

8. STEP 8

   

   Then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid and simmer the cutlets until cooked for about another 5-7 minutes.

9. STEP 9

   

   Transfer the finished cutlets to a plate and serve while they are hot. Absolutely any side dish goes with the cutlets, but it turns out especially delicious with boiled mashed potatoes. Bon appetit!

Alternatively, these turkey cutlets can be made not from minced meat, but from minced meat.

I was looking for what kind of turkey cutlets I could make. I was very intrigued by the recipe for cutlets with semolina. I’ve never made cutlets with cereal. I decided to try making juicy turkey cutlets in a frying pan. It was very unusual for me to add soaked semolina in milk; I’ve never done this before. I added chopped onion to the minced meat, but did not fry it. As for the spices, I also added a teaspoon of ground coriander, I really love this spice) I breaded the cutlets in breadcrumbs. The cutlets turned out gorgeous, incredibly juicy, soft and tender, with a crispy crust. White inside and golden outside. The cutlets just melt in your mouth, you don’t really need to chew. The child ate it on both cheeks, my husband also liked it with semolina, served turkey cutlets with boiled buckwheat. This is a wonderful recipe, semolina cutlets are the best! I added it to my piggy bank) Thank you!

Wonderful recipe! I try to prepare dietary meals for the children, so chicken, turkey, and rabbit meat come first for us. I’ve never tried adding semolina to cutlets. I tried different recipes, with flour, cottage cheese, and starch, but I haven’t tried semolina yet. You should definitely try it. Thank you for such an interesting diet recipe.
