One of the most fun meats to work with is the turkey breast. And cooking turkey is one of the most historically recognizable cooking, especially in the United States and other places in the world who have native species of the turkey in their poultry farms and other independent producers. This turkey recipe is called turkey breast in tomato sauce and butter.
The ingredients for this particular turkey recipe are the following: butter or margarine, one clove garlic, two bulbs of onions, fresh tomato sauce or commercial tomato sauce, around 1/3 liter or you may adjust according to taste, and of course a few hundred grams of turkey breast, which you could also adjust according to how many people would be eating. This recipe is one of the most adjustable and fun ways to cook turkey because it cooks fast and a lot of people can join in on the fun in eating it after it has been cooked. Also, it's simple enough to be followed by anyone, from your teenage daughter to your beloved mother of retirement age.
The first step is to put butter or margarine into a pan, and letting the butter or margarine melt first. When the butter or margarine reaches a particularly nice golden brown color, put the chopped garlic in the butter or margarine. Let the chopped garlic fry for a while, taking care to stir the garlic so that all sides would be toasted nicely, and equally. Then add the chopped onions and wait for the onions to turn brown, so that it would turn sweet and balance the taste of the toasted garlic. Next step would be to add the turkey breast that had been sliced thinly into strips. Allow the mixture to cook for a while, until the meat is tender. Add salt and pepper, and you may add a pinch of whatever spice or herb you wish- oregano or rosemary is fine. After that, finally, you can add the tomato sauce to the mixture. Let the stew cook for between twenty to thirty minutes, so that you would get that nice tender turkey breast and all the flavors nicely infused into the dish.
Another alternative to just adding salt to this recipe is adding some other flavoring ingredients, such as red pepper or green pepper, or chilies, or you can also add some crushed liver or commercial liver spread to improve the taste and add some healthy iron content into the dish. This dish goes very well with white rice, and you may just pour the sauce and the meat over a steaming plate of rice. Turkey breast is a form of lean meat so you wouldn't have to worry about getting fat with this recipe.
When the turkey is done, add a final pinch of sugar to the dish and stir well. Let it stand for a while, then transfer the cooked turkey breast in tomato sauce to a bowl. Serve with white or brown rice.
