This recipe is from a 2007 issue of Easy Home Cooking. The word Wienerschnitzel is German for "viennese cutlet". It's usually made with veal but turkey is more economical & easier to find at most supermarkets. Chicken can also be substituted, which is the way I prepare it.

1Preheat oven to 200F. Blend sour cream, 2 Tbsp. flour, paprika & 1/2 tsp. salt in small bowl; set aside.
Pound turkey breast between sheets of waxed paper to 1/8" thickness.
