Ingredients
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- ⅔ cup canned cranberry sauce preferably whole berry
- 2 tsp fresh orange juice
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- ½ cup seasoned breadcrumbs
- 2 tsp fresh sage finely chopped
- 4 turkey breast cutlets ½-inch-thick
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
-
In a small saucepan, heat butter over medium heat until dark golden-brown with a nutty aroma, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
In a medium bowl, mix cranberry sauce, orange juice, and nutmeg.
-
Add the brown butter to the bowl and mix well.
-
In a rimmed plate or shallow bowl, mix flour, salt, and pepper.
-
In another plate or bowl, mix breadcrumbs and sage.
-
Crack eggs into a third bowl and beat well.
-
Working with one cutlet at a time, dredge it in the flour, shaking off excess, then in the egg, letting the excess drip off, and then in the breadcrumb mixture to coat well. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining cutlets.
-
Place 2 cutlets in the basket of the air fryer and set to 375˚F for 10 minutes.
-
Cook cutlets until cooked through and golden brown. (For most even browning, flip cutlets halfway through cooking.)
-
Transfer cooked cutlets to a clean plate and keep warm.
-
Air fry the remaining two cutlets for 10 minutes at 375˚F, flipping halfway through if desired.
-
Serve turkey with cranberry sauce.
Tips & Tricks
Plain canned cranberry sauce gets transformed into a luscious accompaniment for breaded turkey cutlets made healthier with air frying. That crisp, beautifully browned crust requires no added oil!
