Turkey cutlets are a great alternative to eating chicken breast everyday. If you are like us, chicken is a staple on our weekly dinner menu, and sometimes it’s nice to switch things up. Since I’m not a huge red meat fan, and I tend to like leaner meats, baked turkey cutlets with roasted broccoli is a great substitute.
A great add-on to this recipe is gravy. My husband prefers the Pioneer Brand gluten-free brown gravy mix and it is super easy to make. It’s available on Amazon in bulk or you can purchase at your local grocery store. The instructions are right on the package and only require water. This gravy brand is gluten-free, but it does contain dairy so substitute with this gluten & dairy-free gravy recipe if necessary.
Baked Turkey Cutlets with Pioneer Brand Gluten-Free Brown Gravy
Another great pairing with this meal is an Oregon Pinot Noir. We tried the Rainstorm Pinot Noir which is a 50/50 blend from vineyards in Willamette and Umpqua Valleys, Oregon. I am definitely not a wine connoisseur, but Willamette Valley is considered one of the premier producing areas of Pinot Noir in the world.
