I also make this with leftover turkey from holiday meals. Just brown the meat lightly and the sauce will give it a wonderful flavor.—Patricia D Kile, Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania.

Ingredients

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 package (17.6 ounces) turkey breast cutlets
2 tablespoons canola oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the first five ingredients. Add turkey, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat.
In a large skillet, cook turkey in oil in batches over medium heat for 1-2 minutes on each side or until meat is no longer pink. Remove and keep warm.
In the same skillet, cook onion and garlic for 1 minute. Add broth and lime juice stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; stir in the remaining ingredients until butter is melted. Serve with turkey. Yield: 4 servings.

Cutting Green Onions

I recently tried a recipe that called for 3/4 cup green onions. Instead of using a knife, I found that snipping the onions with a pair of kitchen scissors took only a few seconds. —Kristy B., Kelowna, British Columbia
