Honey pepper turkey not just for Thanksgiving

Turkey is not just for Thanksgiving anymore. The sweet and savory flavors of the sauce are a delicious and unexpected variation on traditional turkey cutlets. The smoky flavor of the pimento pasta complements the sauce.

Helpful hints

■ Thin sliced, boneless, turkey breast is available in most markets. Thin sliced boneless, skinless chicken breast can be used instead.

■ Cracked black pepper can be found in the spice section of the supermarket.

■ If using thicker sliced turkey or chicken, cook until a meat thermometer reaches 170 degrees.

Countdown

■ Place water for pasta on to boil. ■ Make turkey. ■ Make pimento pasta.
