TURKEY BREAST WITH PROSCIUTTO AND MELTED CHEESE

Prep: 10 min; Cook: 10 min - Easy
Serves 4 - 6


Quick and easy as well as tasty and satisfying.
  • 4 turkey breasts, trimmed and flattened
  • 2 TBSP unsalted butter
  • 4 thin slices of prosciutto
  • 1 - 2 cups grated or 4 slices thinly-sliced cheese: groviera (Gruyere), or fontina, Emmentaler, Jarlsberg, Swiss, raclette
  • 1/2 cup white wine (optional for de-glaze)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
OO Skillet large enough to hold the fillets (best if you can cook and serve all at once).

MELT the butter in the skillet on low-medium heat. Add the turkey breasts, lightly brown both sides - about 2 minutes each.

TURN again (so the hot side is up), lay on a piece of prosciutto and add the cheese.

THE dish is ready when the cheese starts to melt down into the buttery pan - about 3 more minutes.

SERVE, pouring remaing juices over turkey.
