Yogurt and Citrus Turkey Breast with Grilled Tomato and Wax Bean Salad...


This is delish and easy You could also use chicken .....
I got The recipe from My new fave cook book by Oprah ......


The Stuff
Serves 6

Turkey:

2 pounds (1/2-inch-thick) turkey cutlets
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Zest and juice of 2 large oranges
2 cups plain low-fat organic yogurt
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1/4 cup packed fresh mint leaves , chopped

Bean salad:

1/2 pound green beans , trimmed
1/2 pound wax beans , trimmed
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper
3 large ripe tomatoes , cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
1/4 cup aged balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

To make turkey: Place cutlets between doubled sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound cutlets to 1/4-inch thickness. Season with salt and pepper.

In a small bowl, combine orange zest and juice, yogurt, ginger, and mint; stir until blended. Pour yogurt mixture into a large resealable plastic bag; add turkey cutlets and turn to coat thoroughly. Refrigerate 2 hours.

Heat a large panini griddle or George Foreman grill to high (with drip tray in place). Remove cutlets from marinade; allow excess yogurt to drip off. In batches, place cutlets on grill, cover, and cook until cooked through, about 2 minutes. Keep warm in oven.

To make bean salad: Heat a panini griddle or George Foreman grill. In batches, arrange beans in a single layer on griddle. Cover, and cook until just tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, and set aside.

Sprinkle tomato slices with salt and pepper to taste; grill until just heated through, about 1 minute.

In a small bowl, whisk vinegar and oil until blended. On each of 6 plates, layer tomato slices and beans, drizzling each layer with vinaigrette. Top with turkey cutlets.


Sorry the picture is not so good ......But It tastes great ....and if you can only get green beans thats fine .....

Enjoy...
