Fremgangsmåde
Trin for trin
- 1
In a small bowl, whisk together the water, cornstarch, and chicken bouillon granules to make a slurry and set aside.
Ca. 2 min.
- 2
Pat the turkey cutlets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Ensuring the turkey is dry helps it get a nice golden-brown sear.
- 3
Heat the neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Ca. 1 min.
- 4
Add the turkey cutlets to the hot skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through.
Ca. 8 min.
Kokkens note: Cooking time will vary based on the thickness of the cutlets. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
- 5
Transfer the cooked turkey to a plate and set aside.
Ca. 1 min.
- 6
Reduce the heat to medium, give the slurry a quick stir, and pour it into the skillet.
Ca. 1 min.
- 7
Cook for about a minute, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until the sauce thickens.
Ca. 1 min.
- 8
Add the light cream cheese and Dijon mustard, whisking until the cheese melts and the sauce is smooth.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Using room temperature cream cheese will help it melt more evenly and prevent clumping.
- 9
Stir in the chopped spinach for the sauce and cook until it just wilts, about 1-2 minutes.
Ca. 2 min.
- 10
Divide the fresh spinach for serving between two plates.
