Tips:
Using Worcestershire sauce in a kosher kitchen can be tricky, because it contains anchovies. Check the kosher certification mark. When it is accompanied by a "fish" notation, it means that the level of anchovies is greater than 1.6% of the whole product. When the kosher certification mark stands alone, the percentage of anchovies is less than 1.6%. when using Worcestershire sauce with meat dishes, use a brand with a stand-alone kosher certification.
Honey and citrus flavors provide contrast to the North African-inspired spicing in this tasty turkey dish.
Pair turkey cutlets with roasted fennel and a rich pomegranate pan sauce for a simple, yet elegant, dish. Serve with a nutty-tasting bulgur pilaf for a delightful meal.
