INGREDIENTS:

1/4 oz (1/3 cup) dried porcini mushrooms

1 cup boiling water

1 Tbsp all-purpose flour

1 Tbsp freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 tsp salt

4 thin-sliced turkey cutlets

4 tsp olive oil

12 oz white button mushrooms, sliced

3 Tbsp white grape juice

1 Tbsp chopped fresh sage

DIRECTIONS:

1.  Place dried mushrooms and boiling water in bowl and let stand for 15 minutes. Line small strainer with cheesecloth and place over a small bowl.

2.  Using a slotted spoon, remove mushrooms from the liquid to a cutting board and chop. Pour the liquid through the strainer. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the liquid.

3.  In a shallow bowl, combine flour, cheese, and salt. Place cutlets in flour mixture, pressing to coat thoroughly.

4.  Heat 2 tsp of oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add cutlets and cook for 8 minutes, turning once, or until no longer pink and the juices run clear. Remove to a platter and keep warm.

5.  Add remaining 2 tsp oil to skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add fresh mushrooms and softened dried mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes. Add grape juice and 2 tsp of reserved liquid and cook, stirring frequently, for 3 minutes, or until mushrooms are tender and liquid is absorbed. Add a little more liquid if pan gets too dry.

6.  Pour any juices from the platter over the mushrooms, sprinkle with sage, and simmer for 30 seconds. Top cutlets with sauce and mushrooms.
