Ingredients for 3 servings:

- Ground black pepper - on the tip of a knife;
- Sweet paprika (dried) - 0.3 teaspoon;
- Salt - to taste;
- Rosemary - 0.2 tsp;
- Butter for frying - 50 g.
Preparation
Chilled turkey meat can be bought in a store or at the market, where parts of the carcass are sold separately: thighs, wings or fillets. We need sirloin. It is necessary to remove the meat from the packaging, rinse thoroughly under the tap, and fill it with water and baking soda for 30 minutes. This is done to make the tough turkey meat softer and juicier. Take soda at the rate of 0.5 tsp. for 1 liter of water. Then rinse the tenderloin again, dry it lightly with a napkin and cut into small pieces 2x2 cm.
Grease a thick-bottomed frying pan with butter and place all the chopped meat on it. The frying mode should be fast so that the juice inside is preserved. To do this, turn up the heat on the stove. During the frying process, the turkey fillet turns white and slightly browns. Stir the meat constantly to prevent it from burning.
Add all the spices to the fillet: pepper, salt, rosemary and paprika. Stir in fillet pieces. Roast for another 2-3 minutes to allow the spices to blend with the roasted turkey aroma.
Reduce the heat under the pan to low. At this time, in a separate bowl, dilute and lightly beat the egg, add sour cream, and mix these ingredients thoroughly.
Advice. You can make sour cream sauce without eggs, just mix sour cream with spices or add directly to fried turkey meat.
Place the egg-sour cream mixture from the bowl into the frying pan with the turkey pieces, stir carefully, and cover the frying pan with a lid. Simmer over low heat for half an hour or 40 minutes, take a sample twice, if you are satisfied with everything, turn off the heat. Keep covered for a few more minutes to allow the dish to rest and infuse all the flavors you used to cook the sour cream-stewed turkey in the pan.
Our recipe is for 3 servings, it can be breakfast or dinner for a small family. Add any side dish to your taste, and the number of servings can be doubled. Boiled rice, mashed potatoes, and millet porridge are suitable as a side dish for stewed turkey. Bon appetit and stay healthy.
