Turkey Saltimbocca Toss
- Yield 6 servings
- Prep 5 mins
- Cook 16 mins
This easy adaptation of a popular Italian dish is prepared with readily available turkey cutlets instead of veal.
Saltimbocca translates as "jump into your mouth." The addition of ready-to-cook bagged sugar snap peas and cooked orzo makes it a complete meal. Pass warmed Italian bread at the table.
Ingredients

- 3/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
