Recipe(tried): My mama used to make turkey this way....

Jill, my mama used to make fried turkey. She always used the turkey breast. Until I was about 14 I thought that everyone had fried turkey for Christmas, Easter, and Thanksgiving. I didn't know that turkeys were supposed to be eaten whole!

My mom would cut the breast into chicken-strip sized pieces. She would marinate these pieces for several hours in buttermilk. After removing the turkey pieces from buttermilk, she would sprinkle the turkey pieces with meat tenderizer and then place the turkey into seasoned flour. She would use self-rising flour, poultry seasoning, pepper, a little salt, dried sage, and dried parsley to flavor the flour. After throughly coating each piece, she would fry the turkey in hot peanut oil in an electric skillet until done. There was never a piece left over when Mama made her Fried Turkey Breast!

Another idea would be to cook the turkey tenderloins in the oven using a Reynolds Plastic Cooking Bag. You could add the seasoning vegetables that you and your family like: celery, bell peppers, onions, and garlic. Place these into the cooking bag, along with the tablespoon of flour, and put the turkey on top of the veggies. To this mixture I would add 1 can of cream of chicken soup and 1/2 soup can filled with white wine or water. I would cook the turkey/veggies for 45 mintues-1 hour or until turkey tests done. The turkey and veggies would be delicious over rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes.
