90 minutes
Chopped turkey cutlets with feta are a harmony of tender meat, tangy cheese, and fragrant herbs. Originating from French cuisine, this dish combines refined flavors with the warmth of home. Turkey fillet and smoked bacon create a rich meaty taste complemented by the softness of feta infused with butter and garlic. The original texture of the minced meat soaked in milk and egg makes the cutlets juicy and tender. The breading adds an appetizing crispy crust, while baking in the oven enhances the depth of flavor. These cutlets will adorn family dinners, delight gourmets, and pair beautifully with vegetable sides or a light yogurt-based sauce. They are enjoyable to prepare while savoring the aromas that fill the kitchen with warmth and comfort.
