Mesquite turkey breast with apple and onion pan
This leans on the caramelized apple and smoke already in the deli turkey, building those flavors with fresh apple, caramelized onion, and a touch of vinegar. The meat stays tender when you warm it gently in the pan rather than cook it hard, so dinner comes together in under twenty minutes.

To buy
- 1 medium apple
From your shelf
- 6 oz mesquite smoked turkey breast, Publix
Staples
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 medium onion
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Slice 1 medium onion into half-moons and cook until softened and golden at the edges, about 6 minutes, stirring now and then.
- While the onion cooks, core and slice 1 medium apple into thin wedges. Push the onion to the side of the pan and add the apple slices, tossing them in the fat. Cook until the apple is tender and both are caramelized where they touch the pan, another 3 or 4 minutes.
- Separate the mesquite smoked turkey slices, then add them to the pan and fold everything gently together. Cook until the turkey is just warmed through, about 1 minute. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
Note Swap the apple for pear if you have it. Leftovers keep refrigerated in a covered container for two days and are good cold or reheated gently. Serve with rice, bread, or a green salad to round out the meal.
