Recipe: Barbecued Turkey Saltimbocca (using turkey breast, prosciutto and Swiss cheese)

Main Dishes - Chicken, Poultry
BARBECUED TURKEY SALTIMBOCCA

"Fresh sage leaves, prosciutto, and Swiss cheese are layered atop turkey breast slices for a rich tasting entree This is lower-fat version of traditional Italian veal dish."

1 turkey breast half (about 3 lbs.), boned and skinned
1 large clove garlic, cut in half
2 teaspoons olive oil
16 to 20 large fresh sage leaves
1/4 pound thinly sliced prosciutto
4 or 5 slices (about 1 oz. each) Swiss cheese

Rinse turkey and pat dry. Cut meat across the grain into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Rub each slice all over with cut garlic, then rub with oil. Press one sage leaf onto one side of each turkey slice.

Cut prosciutto and cheese into equal-size pieces; you need one prosciutto slice and one cheese slice for each turkey slice. Set aside.

Place turkey, sage side up, on a lightly greased grill 4- to 6-inches above a solid bed of hot coals. Cook for 3 minutes, then turn slices over. Quickly top each piece with a slice of prosciutto, a slice of cheese, and another sage leaf. Cover barbecue and adjust dampers (or cover with a tent of heavy-duty foil). Cook until meat is no longer pink in center; cut to test (about 3 more minutes). Using a wide metal spatula, transfer turkey to individual plates.

Makes 4 or 5 servings
