Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup pine nuts
  • 8 turkey cutlets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Freshly-ground black pepper to taste
  • 6 piquillo peppers, seeds removed
  • 2 tablespoons pine nut, hazelnut or walnut oil
  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  • Sherry vinegar to taste(optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oven to 300°F. Toast the pine nuts until very lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool.

Place the turkey cutlets in a shallow dish. Add the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste and turn to coat all sides. Set aside while heating a grill.

Combine the piquillos, pine nuts, pine nut oil and peanut oil in a blender and process until smooth. Season with salt to taste. Add a splash of vinegar if desired.

Grill the turkey until just done, about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Divide among serving plates and spoon piquillo sauce in a ribbon over the cutlets, passing the remainder on the side. (Makes two-thirds cup sauce.)
