Ingredients

• 4 pieces Turkey breast cutlets
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 6 cups Fresh spinach leaves
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg, ground
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Season the turkey cutlets with salt and ground black pepper on both sides.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Once hot, sear the turkey cutlets for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Set aside on a plate.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and butter. Sauté the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.

Step 5

Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and stir in Parmesan cheese and ground nutmeg. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 7

Return the seared turkey cutlets to the skillet, spooning some of the spinach cream sauce over the top. Simmer for 1-2 minutes to combine the flavors.

Step 8

Transfer the turkey and sauce to an oven-safe baking dish if your skillet is not oven-safe.

Step 9

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the top of the turkey and sauce.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Serve hot with your favorite side dish, like rice, potatoes, or crusty bread, to soak up the creamy sauce.
