INSTRUCTIONS
This is very much like my recipe in an earlier book for Chicken Piccata, but in this case I use sliced turkey breast. It is now readily available in most supermarkets, and since it is low in fat and there is no waste, I recommend it for regular eating. Don't overcook this and you will be very pleased with the results. Using a wooden or metal meat pounder, pound the meat a bit between a heavy plastic sheet until the slices are about double their former size. Salt and pepper each, and dust with a bit of the flour. Dip into the egg wash and then into the crumbs, which have been placed on a plate. Fry two pieces at a time in a bit of the oil. Cook only 2 or 3 minutes on each side, as you want them lightly browned, not dry. Remove and keep warm on a platter. Deglaze the pan with the wine. Add the capers and lemon juice, and reduce for a minute. Pour over the turkey and garnish with the parsley and lemon slices. For a special addition, try adding some crushed garlic to the pan just before you deglaze it. Delicious! Since this is a quick one, I would serve it with a nice green salad, rolls, and a dry white wine. That's enough! From <The Frugal Gourmet Cooks American>.
