Ingredients

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 5 teaspoons olive or canola oil, divided
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can Italian stewed tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
  • 1 1/4 pounds turkey breast cutlets
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  1. In a saucepan, saute onion and garlic in 2 teaspoons oil until tender. Stir in the tomatoes, basil, oregano and rosemary. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook, uncovered, over medium heat for 15-20 minutes or until sauce thickens.
