Cheesy Turkey Milanese Recipe

This week’s dish, featuring a special offer on breaded turkey escalope, pairs a simple tomato pasta with a hint of garlic and succulent, cheesy turkey bread on the side. From kitchen to plate within the hour, it’s as easy to make as it is to eat.

INGREDIENTS

4 Breaded Turkey Escalopes

2 tbsp Olive Oil 

3 fat garlic cloves, crushed

2 x 400g cans of chopped tomoatoes

Small bunch basil, leaves picked

125g ball mozzarella, drained and sliced, or a handful of another good melting cheese such as cheddar or Gruyère

350g spaghetti

METHOD

Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the garlic and sizzle for 30 secs, then add the tomatoes. Season and bubble for 15 mins until the sauce is thick, adding a pinch of sugar if the taste is too sharp.

While the sauce cooks, heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6, put the turkey escalopes on a baking tray, lightly spray with oil, and bake for 10 mins, then remove from the oven, top with mozzarella slices and return to the oven for another 5 mins, until the turkey is cooked through and the cheese has melted.

Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti following pack instructions. Drain, then toss through the tomato sauce. Divide between plates and top with a turkey steak and a generous scattering of basil leaves.
