Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake a turkey with tomatoes and cheese in the oven? Prepare your ingredients. Any fillet is suitable — both from the breast and from the thigh. It is better if the meat is chilled; if frozen, defrost it according to all the rules so that it retains its juiciness.

Step 2

Step 2
Cut the fillet into portions. Try to cut the meat across the grain — this will make it softer. Lightly pound each piece with a meat mallet.

Step 3

Step 3
Place the meat in a bowl, add salt, spices and soy sauce. Mix well and leave to marinate for half an hour. When adding soy sauce to a dish, it is worth considering that it has a fairly salty taste. Reduce the total amount of salt, otherwise you risk oversalting.

Meanwhile, grate the cheese on a fine grater, combine it with sour cream and finely chopped dill. Choose greens according to your taste or availability.
