Questions about Turkey escalope
How do you pan-fry a turkey escalope without drying it out?
Pat it dry, season it and fry in a lightly oiled hot pan for about 2–3 minutes per side, depending on thickness. It is cooked when the centre reaches 75 °C; take it off the heat promptly, as the thin meat dries quickly.
Can you cook a turkey escalope in the oven?
Yes. Put it in a lightly oiled baking dish and cook at 200 °C for about 12–15 minutes, turning once; check that the centre reaches 75 °C, since a thin escalope can cook sooner.
How do you make a crispy breaded turkey escalope?
Dip the escalope in flour, beaten egg and breadcrumbs, pressing the crumbs on gently. Shallow-fry over medium heat for about 3 minutes per side until golden and cooked through; drain briefly on kitchen paper.
What can you serve with turkey escalope?
Try it with lemon, parsley and boiled new potatoes, or serve it with a crisp green salad. A breaded escalope also works well with tomato sauce and pasta.
Can you freeze turkey escalopes?
Freeze them raw in a sealed freezer bag, separated with baking paper so they do not stick together. Defrost in the fridge and cook promptly; keep raw turkey separate from ready-to-eat food.
How is turkey escalope different from turkey breast?
An escalope is a thin, flattened cut, often sliced from the breast, so it cooks much faster than a whole breast. Per 100 g, turkey breast has 103 kcal and 21.7 g protein, compared with 108 kcal and 24 g in turkey escalope.
Is turkey escalope a good source of protein?
Yes: a 100 g portion provides 24 g of protein. It also provides 9.9 mg of niacin, which is more than 15% of the daily value per 100 g.
Can you eat turkey escalope pink?
No. Cook it until the thickest part reaches 75 °C; the meat should be steaming hot throughout, with no raw-looking centre. Use a clean plate and utensils for the cooked escalope, not those that touched it raw.
