Turkey shank Steak

Juicy and fragrant steak baked in the oven. Unlike the breast, red turkey meat is juicier, so excellent steaks are obtained from the lower leg of the bird. You can cook them not only in a frying pan, but also in the oven. Pre-marinating gives the steaks softness and rich taste.

Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 6 h

Step 1:
To prepare turkey drumstick steak, you will need: turkey drumstick steaks, olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, salt, vegetable oil, basil, herbs of Provence, dill.
Step 2:
For the marinade, combine soy sauce, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, mix.
Step 3:
Add basil, herbs of Provence, salt to the marinade. Add salt carefully, because soy sauce has a certain degree of salinity. Focus on your taste.
Step 4:
Wash the turkey steaks, dry them, put them in the marinade. The pickling time is 2-5 hours. The longer the steaks are marinated, the softer they will be and the more intense the taste. You can put steaks to marinate in the refrigerator in the evening, and start cooking the next day. If necessary, you can turn the steaks over during marinating so that they are soaked from all sides.
Step 5:
Remove the marinated steaks from the marinade, let the liquid drain. In a frying pan with the addition of vegetable oil, fry the steaks on both sides until golden brown. Fry it quickly and over high heat, so the crust forms faster. It will prevent the leakage of meat juice, so that the steaks will turn out juicier.
Step 6:
Place the fried steaks in a baking dish together with the marinade. The form on top can be covered with foil.
Step 7:
Cook steaks in a preheated 190 degree oven for 45 minutes. Remove the foil 10 minutes before cooking so that the steaks are browned. Serve turkey steaks hot, sprinkled with finely chopped herbs. Cereals, potatoes or pasta are suitable as a side dish. Steak goes well with a salad of fresh vegetables and herbs. Bon appetit!

Steak from any meat will be juicier if it is pre-marinated. It is the marinade that plays an important role in shaping the taste of the finished dish.
Marinades can be used in different ways, but it is very desirable that it includes ingredients containing acids. They soften the meat well, which makes the steaks more tender.
We like marinade with soy sauce. Steaks in this marinade acquire a peculiar, unusual taste and aroma.

To prevent the steaks from getting stiff and dry, it is necessary to use fresh, high-quality meat of young birds for cooking.
If the meat is frozen, it needs to be properly thawed. It is best to put the steaks out of the chamber overnight in the refrigerator. With slow defrosting, less juice will be released from the meat.
