How to Make Swiss Chard And Turkey Au Gratin

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a 2-quart shallow baking dish.
  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine 1 bunch (about 1 pound) Swiss chard, roughly chopped, 2 cloves garlic, minced, 1 cup frozen chopped onions, and 1 cup water. Cover and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until chard is wilted and tender (about 10 minutes).
  3. Spread the chard mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  4. Coat a large nonstick frying pan with non-stick cooking spray. Heat over medium-high heat.
  5. Add 2 (4-6 oz) turkey cutlets, seasoned with black pepper to taste, and cook in a single layer for 3 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and cooked through.
  6. Remove turkey from pan with a slotted spoon and arrange on top of the chard.
  7. In the same pan, add ½ cup dry white wine and 1 tablespoon lemon zest. Bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits from the pan (about 3 minutes).
  8. Add 1 cup chicken broth, ¾ cup water, and 1 ½ teaspoons paprika. Bring to a boil.
  9. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch with ¼ cup water until smooth.
  10. Whisk the cornstarch mixture into the boiling broth until thickened (about 1 minute).
  11. Pour the sauce over the turkey and chard.
  12. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the turkey is cooked through and the sauce is bubbling.
  13. Dust with an additional ½ teaspoon paprika before serving.
  14. Serve directly from the baking dish and enjoy!
