To make this rich and flavorful main course, you’ll need to use turkey tenderloins sliced into thin cutlets. Plus, this recipe is designed to be low-carb! The sauce is simpler than piccata, and the turkey cutlets have a slightly deeper flavor than chicken. This dish is similar, using turkey scallopini – again, thin, breaded and fried cutlets – in a creamy, garlicky pan sauce.

You might be wondering if scallopini is essentially the same as piccata, and the short answer is…sort of! Chicken piccata is a popular dish that basically combines chicken scallopini (thin, breaded, and fried cutlets) and a zesty sauce known as “piccata.” So Chicken piccata is a type of scallopini dish, featuring piccata sauce! It’s an awesome gourmet dish you can make at home, anytime! What’s the difference between piccata and scallopini? Seasoned perfectly and breaded with panko and Parmesan cheese, they are a pan-fried piece of heaven! And the creamy, garlicky pan sauce just takes things up a whole other level.īut, although turkey scallopini tastes like a home-cooked meal, your Italian Nonna slaved over all day, they are surprisingly easy and quick to make! Turkey cutlets only take a few minutes to cook, and the sauce comes together in the same skillet with ease. Well, these cutlets aren’t quite that indulgent, but let me tell you, they are delicious.

Like fried chicken, or onion rings, or a giant slice of cake! Every so often I just want something a little indulgent – and by every so often, I mean… frequently.
