These turkey cutlet sandwiches offer a sophisticated twist on a classic lunch, combining lean protein with bold, Mediterranean-inspired flavours. The turkey is pounded thin to ensure it stays tender and cooks in minutes, making this a perfect choice for a quick yet filling weekday meal. By coating the meat in a spiced mayonnaise before searing, you achieve a beautiful golden crust that locks in moisture.
As a high-protein option, this dish is as nutritious as it is satisfying, featuring vibrant shop-bought roasted peppers for sweetness and a smoky paprika dressing for depth. Serve these toasted baguettes warm for a comforting lunch, or pack them up for a gourmet picnic. For a lighter touch, you could swap the baguette for wholemeal wraps or a crisp green salad.
