Cinnamon Orange Turkey Scaloppini

Thin turkey cutlets in a unique sweet-savory glaze made with orange juice, cinnamon, and butter. Lightly pan-seared for a zesty, fragrant main course.

Ingredients

4 (6 ounce) turkey cutlets
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Directions

Combine the cinnamon, and garlic with a little salt and pepper; rub over both sides of the turkey cutlets.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned cutlets, and fry for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until nicely browned on the outside, but not fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside; keep warm.
Pour the orange juice and lemon juice into the pan, stirring in any bits of food that are stuck to the pan. Bring to a boil, and return the turkey to the pan. Reduce heat to medium, and cook until liquid has reduced by half, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve cutlets with sauce spooned over.
