Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp olive oil

• 2 cups frozen, pitted tart cherries, halved
• 6 Tbsp white balsamic vinegar or regular balsamic vinegar
• 6 Tbsp chicken broth
• 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
• ¼ cup all purpose flour
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 lb turkey cutlets

Instructions

1. Heat 1 Tbsp of oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until tender and starting to brown.
2. Add cherries, balsamic and chicken broth to pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for 25 minutes, or until liquid is reduced by half. 
3. While sauce is simmering, combine flour, salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Dip turkey cutlets in flour, coating both sides evenly. 
4. In a large nonstick skillet, heat remaining 1 Tbsp of oil over medium-high heat. Add cutlets and cook on each side until lightly brown and cooked through to a minimum temperature of 165° F. 
5. Once sauce is reduced by half, stir in the mustard and continue cooking for 5 minutes. 
6. Transfer cutlets to serving plates and top with cherry sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy!
