Take it from Overlook Medical Center's Chef Todd: this turkey cutlet encino recipe packs all the protein and flavor of a traditional bistek without the red meat.
Equipment Needed
Measuring cups and teaspoons measuring
Large bowl
Cutting board (yellow chicken)
Chef knife
Metal spatula for sautéing
10 inch sauté pan
Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 lemon, juiced (about ¼ cup)

Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, chili paste, salt and pepper. Add turkey and coat with marinade. Marinate at least 1 hour, up to overnight.
- Heat a large oven-proof sauté pan over medium heat and add remaining olive oil. Add steaks and onions and sear for about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer pan to the oven and roast for about 8 minutes or until steaks are cooked through.
