directions

  • In 3-quart saucepan over high heat, heat potatoes and enough water to cover to boiling. Reduce heat to low and cover and simmer 10-15 minutes until potatoes are fork tender. Drain and keep potatoes warm.
  • Meanwhile dice tomatoes, thinly slice onion; set aside.
  • On waxed paper, mix flour, salt, and rosemary. If turkey cutlets are large, cut them into desired serving size. Dip turkey cutlets into flour mixture to lightly coat.
  • In non-stick 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, in hot melted shortening, cook turkey cutlets, a few at a time, about 5 minutes or until lightly browned and they lose their pink color throughout, removing pieces to plate as they brown.
  • Spoon off any fat in skillet. Stir in diced tomatoes, onion, and capers. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and cook 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Return turkey cutlets to skillet; heat through.
  • To serve, arrange potatoes and turkey cutlets on 4 dinner plates. Spoon sauce over turkey.

  1. I really didn't think this would have much flavor, but I was wrong! Delicious and loved by the whole family!
     
  2. I really love this recipe. I've made it several times now and it has become a go to easy recipe in our household because we usually have all the ingredients on hand. fast, easy and delicious. Thanks!
     
  3. This was GOOD! I've enjoyed capers when they've been paet of a dish, but I've never used them in cooking. I won't be afraid to use them again. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts (6), a can of peeled, diced tomatos,and some (about 1/4 lb) tiny crimini mushrooms. I'll double the amounts next week when we have company. Good recipie. Thanks for posting.
     
  4. We love capers and this recipe is a GREAT way to use them. "The turkey cutlets were tender and the rosemary gave them a wonderful flavor. The tomatoes and capers added extra flavor to the cutlets and potatoes that will surely please your family and guests. Thanks so much for sharing this winner, sunshinefromaz.
     
  5. Very yummy and flavorful recipe! The only changes I made was to add some baby bella mushrooms and a little salt and pepper to the potatoes. Otherwise very good!

I have two grown sons;Brandon and Zach and three granchildren,Laurel 12y/o;Shelby 6y/o; and Tyson 3,and as of yesterday;Dec 11,2007 I have a new granddaughter AVA GRACIE EVA FISHER.They live in Nebraska. I am 58 y/o and retired and collect giraffes and snow globes;as for snowglobes I preferring the plastic ones with advertising.I have over 100 globes and nearly that many giraffes. I have a kitty named Cyrano(5 y/o) that is the most affectionate cat I have ever seen.He just won`t stop rubbing up against my chin or legs and he is a "head butter".He follows me around the condo like a puppy.He needs to be in my lap every time I sit down and sleeps with me.He lays beside the computer when I am on-line and keeps tapping the mouse.I am sure he knows this messes up the page because he has a smirk on his tiny,little face. . I have been collecting recipes since I was first married and love to cook and recently learned I do like to bake; although; I never did when my kids were young and never thought I would. My grandmother and father collected recipes and wanted to publish a cookbook.Dad would make me make the recipes and taste them to see if he thought they were up to his standards.After they both passed away my sister and I decided we would take up the call and publish individual cookbooks like you see in grocery stores.We would call them."Dad Made Me Eat It." I have an old"Easy Cooking For Today" cookbook from Chef Pol Martin published in 1986 that must weigh 3 lbs and and I learned more from that book than any other.It has 608 pages.
