\"\"<\/a>Turkey Cutlets with Squash, Canadian Swiss and Honey Sauce<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

What\u2019s old is new again. And more delicious than ever.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As beautiful and timeless as most of the holiday traditions are, in my humble opinion, there\u2019s one that could use a little updating. That\u2019s right. I\u2019m talking about the Christmas turkey. So this week I\u2019m suggesting a recipe that puts a whole new spin on this holiday classic: turkey cutlets with squash, Canadian Swiss (always a favourite) and honey sauce. I\u2019m also suggesting a couple of wines to help you wash it all down with a flourish.<\/p>\n

Because the dish is flavourful without being too rich, it pairs beautifully with a red Gamay Beaujolais. My suggestion? A bottle of Marcel Lapierre Raisins Gaulois<\/strong> 2011, which boasts a fruitiness that mirrors the cranberry sauce. If you prefer white wine, I strongly recommend a bottle of Riesling, which is traditionally known as one of the wines that goes best with turkey. Go with a local favourite like Ch\u00e2teau des Charmes Old Vines Riesling 2008<\/strong><\/a> (Ontario).<\/p>\n

Cheers to turkey!<\/p>\n

Turkey Cutlets with Squash, Canadian Swiss and Honey Sauce<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong>:\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Cutlets<\/strong>:
\n1 small butternut squash, cut in half
\n1 tbsp (15 ml) old-fashioned mustard
\n2 tbsp (15 ml) butter
\nSalt
\nGround pepper to taste
\n1 tbsp (15 ml) oil
\n4 large turkey cutlets, of approx. 5 oz (150 g) each<\/p>\n

Sauce<\/strong>:
\n2 green onions, chopped
\n1 cup (250 ml) chicken broth
\n2 tbsp (30 ml) honey
\n2\/3 cup (160 ml) Canadian Swiss, diced or grated
\n1 tbsp (15 ml) flour
\n3 tbsp (45 ml) milk<\/p>\n

Instructions<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F (180\u00b0C).<\/p>\n

Cook squash in microwave oven 6-8 minutes or until tender. Mash until a pur\u00e9e texture, add mustard, 1 tbsp (15 ml) of butter and seasonings.<\/p>\n

Arrange cutlets on the work surface. Spread pur\u00e9e on each of them. Roll cutlets and fix with toothpicks or tie up with string.<\/p>\n

In a skillet, heat oil and melt in 1 tbsp (15 ml) of butter over high heat. Brown the stuffed cutlets 1-2 minutes on each side.<\/p>\n

Arrange in an ovenproof plate and season. Bake in oven, uncovered, 12-15 minutes.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, saut\u00e9 the green onions in skillet for 2 minutes. Deglaze with the broth and honey. Let simmer 3-4 minutes.<\/p>\n

Toss cheese with flour, and add it to the sauce. Melt gently, add the milk and adjust seasoning.<\/p>\n

Tips<\/strong><\/p>\n

Serve the squash-stuffed cutlets topped with the Swiss sauce and accompanied with greens. For a quicker version: serve cooked cutlets on mashed squash and topped with sauce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
