Parmesan-Walnut Turkey Tenderloins Or Chicken Breasts

Recipe Ingredients

1/2 cup	73g / 2.6oz	Parmesan cheese - freshly grated
1/2 cup	31g / 1.1oz	All-purpose flour
1/3 cup	78ml	Walnuts - in pieces
1/2 cup	118ml	Milk
1 1/4 lbs	567g / 20oz	Turkey tenderloin or
2		Skinless boneless chicken breast - * see note
3 tablespoons	45ml	Olive oil
1/4 cup	36g / 1.3oz	Parsley - finely chopped

Recipe Instructions

* If using chicken breasts, split and flatten them slightly.

Process Parmesan, flour, and walnuts in food processor until nuts are finely chopped. Transfer to a sheet of waxed paper. Pour the milk into a shallow bowl.

Pat the tenderloins or chicken dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle both side lightly with salt and pepper. Coat one tenderloin at a time with the parmesan mixture, dip it in milk, and coat it again with the Parmesan mixture.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the tenderloins and saute, turning once, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley and serve hot.

NOTES : My experience is that chicken breasts need to be sauteed a minimum of 5 minutes per side, unless they have been pounded fairly thin.
