Garlic Breaded Turkey Escalopes...

There's not many gluten free-breaded products available to buy in the supermarkets.  Fortunately, it's easy and affordable to make these sorts of things at home, and probably a lot healthier too!  Yesterday I came up with these: Garlic Breaded Turkey Escalopes.  I made mine gluten-free, but of course you could use any type of breadcrumbs you like.


Here's how I did it!

Ingredients
  • Breadcrumbs
  • Dried parsley
  • Garlic salt
  • Salt and pepper
  • An egg
  • Flour
  • Turkey breast steaks


I made my breadcrumbs by hand; I grated a gluten-free roll into a bowl using a hand grater.  I added seasoning, parsley and garlic salt for flavour.

Then I beat the egg into another bowl and set up a third bowl with some gluten-free flour in it.


I dipped each turkey steak into the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs, ensuring they were evenly coated at each stage.  Then I placed the steaks on an oven tray lined with tin foil.


I baked these in my fan assisted oven at 170C for 15-20 minutes until golden.

There were five turkey steaks in the pack, so I prepared them all and the remaining three have been frozen for another day; I'll cook these direct from frozen as required.  Tip: open-freeze the escalopes on a chopping board first - this keeps them flat, so they can then be wrapped individually or stored in food bags until needed.

We served ours with potatoes and vegetables on this occasion.


Tasty, healthy and easy to make!  And a real treat to have breadcrumbs when you have coeliac disease!

Best Wishes
