Searching for an affordable dish to wow your family or friends? In my kitchen, quick meat sautés always steal the show.
One standout is this Madeira turkey sauté, passed down from my mother—a classic French recipe I've cherished since childhood.
I remember standing on tiptoes, watching her prepare it. Now, I don my apron to serve this simple, speedy favorite to guests. Here's how:
- 800 g of sautéed turkey
- 500 g button mushrooms
- 2 shallots
- 1 onion
- a drizzle of olive oil
- 1 glass of Madeira
1. Brown the chopped shallots and onion in a saucepan with a little oil.
2. Add the turkey and sear it on all sides.
3. Pour in the Madeira.
4. Simmer over medium heat for 40 minutes.
5. Add the sliced mushrooms.
6. Stir in a glass of water to the sauce.
7. Reduce heat and simmer for another 30 minutes.
Your Madeira turkey sauté is ready! :-) This reliable recipe delivers festive flavor on a budget, serving 6 generously. Pair with rice or tagliatelle.
Opt for a quality Madeira bottle—use it in the dish and serve as an aperitif too. Leftovers freeze well for quick future meals.
