Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon pepper black freshly ground
• 0.5 cup chicken broth 
• 1 tablespoon olive oil 
• 1 medium onion chopped
• 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar 
• 1 teaspoon salt 
• 24 ounce turkey breast cutlets 
• 5 tablespoons butter unsalted

Equipment

Directions

1. Heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until softened. Push the onion to the side of the pan and add 1 more tablespoon of the butter.
3. Season the turkey with the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper and add to the pan. Turn the heat up to medium-high and cook the turkey until browned on both sides, about 4 minutes total.
4. Transfer the turkey to a platter and cover loosely with aluminum foil.
5. Add the chicken broth, vinegar, and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon pepper to the pan with the onion. Turn the heat up to high and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Return the turkey, along with any accumulated juices, to the skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until cooked through, about 1 minute.

When their mother, Paula Deen, started a sandwich delivery business in 1989, the boys took charge of deliveries. As the business grew into The Lady restaurant, they continued to help. Then, in 1996, the trio opened The Lady & Sons Restaurant to resounding success. They haven't looked back since. They regularly appear on ABC's Good Morning America and had their own Food Network show, Road Tasted.Melissa Clark has written for The New York Times, Food & Wine, Travel & Leisure, and Real Simple and has collaborated on twenty-one books.
