Ingredients

1 pound turkey breast, sliced (cutlets)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup dry white wine (optional)
3/4 cup beef broth, reduced sodium, refrigerated, with the fat removed from the top

How To Make turkey with mushroom and tarragon sauce

Step 1

Dry the turkey cutlets with paper toweling. Cut into 3x1 inch strips.

Step 2

Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches if necessary, panfry the turkey for 30 seconds a side. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
Step 3

Saute mushrooms and onion in skillet over low heat for 3 minutes or until the mushrooms are soft. (you can add several TBS of water to prevent sticking if needed.) Add the wine.
Step 4

In a 2 cup measuring glass, stir the flour into the beef broth until smooth. Pour into skillet and stir. Add salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Lower heat and stir constantly until the mixture thickens slightly.
Step 5

Lower heat to very low. Stir in lemon juice and tarragon. Return turkey to skillet. Cook 1 to 2 minutes until turkey is done.
Step 6

Notes: I have used lemon juice concentrate instead of fresh lemon juice. If you prefer, you can flatten the turkey with a mallet before you begin cooking. If I'm not using wine, I add water or more broth to make up the volume.
