Wild Turkey Cutlet Cordon Bleu

Cutlet Ingredients

  • 2-4 turkey cutlets
  • 1 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 egg, beaten

  • 6 slices ham
  • 6 slices Swiss cheese

Cutlet Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Pound out cutlets, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Roll each piece with two slices of ham & Swiss. Place in fridge for 1 hour to allow the cutlets to set, this is key for them to stay together.

  • Dredge each cutlet in flour, egg, bread crumbs and set aside.
