Instructions

Mix your breadcrumbs, cheese and dried herbs
1

Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees. LH: Grate the parmesan and pop it in in a large mixing bowl. Now add the breadcrumbs, garlic salt, dried basil, dried oregano and a really good grind of black pepper and stir to combine.

2

Bring a large pot of water to the boil with ½ tsp of salt. Peel and roughly chop your potatoes into 3cm chunks. Pop the potatoes into the pot of boiling water and boil for about 15 mins until tender. Tip: The potatoes are cooked when you can easily slip a knife through them.

Bash your turkey steaks
3

In the meantime, prepare your turkey! Put your turkey steaks in between two sheets of clingfilm and use the back of a frying pan to bash the steaks, until they are no more than 1cm thick throughout.

4

Using your hands, rub each steak with 3/4 tbsp of crème fraîche (keep a little back for the mashed potato!) and roll it in the bowl of cheesy-breadcrumb topping until fully coated.

Fry your steaks
5

Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a large frying pan on medium heat and fry the steaks for 3 mins on each side, until golden brown. Transfer the steaks to a non-stick ovenproof dish and bake for 12-15 mins. Tip: The turkey is cooked when it is no longer pink in the middle!

6

While the turkey is baking we can return to the veggies!

Stir your pesto into the beans
7

Bring another pot of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp of salt on medium heat. Cut the ends off your green beans. Tip: This is called topping and tailing your green beans. Pop the beans into the boiling water and gently simmer for 5 mins. When cooked, drain and return to the empty pot and set over very low heat, whilst gently stirring in the pesto and a good grind of black pepper, for a minute.

8

Your potatoes should now be ready. Drain, return to the empty pot and set over very low heat for 1 minute, to completely dry out. Remove from the heat and carefully fold in the remaining crème fraîche along with 5 tbsp of milk and 2 tbsp of butter (if you have it), 1 tsp salt and a few good grinds of black pepper and mash until everything is nice and smooth. Cover until everything else is ready.

Serve your turkey milanese on a plate, together with a dollop of creamy mashed potatoes and pesto-licious green beans!
