To buy
- 1/3 cup white wine or dry vermouth
- 1 small shallot
From your shelf
- 8 oz cracked pepper premium sliced turkey breast
Staples
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Lay the 8 oz of turkey slices flat in the pan, working in two batches if needed so they sit in a single layer, and cook until they begin to colour on one side, about 2 minutes, then flip and cook another minute. Transfer to a plate.
- Add 1 tablespoon butter to the same skillet, then slice in your 2 garlic cloves and add 1 small shallot minced. Stir until fragrant, about a minute while the pan is still hot.
- Pour in 1/3 cup wine and scrape the browned bits from the pan bottom. Simmer until the liquid reduces by half and turns syrupy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Taste and add salt and pepper to balance.
- Return the turkey to the pan, toss to coat in the sauce, and warm through, about 1 minute. Serve right from the skillet or plated with the sauce spooned over.
Note Swap the wine for chicken broth or water if you need to; add a squeeze of lemon juice instead. Leftovers keep three days covered; shred and toss into pasta or grain bowls. Serve over rice, soft polenta, or wilted greens.
