Back in our former life, (before heart surgery) I would have made pork chops with sauerkraut, just like my Czech grandmother did. Sauerkraut is high in sodium, so if you are on a low sodium diet, substitute more peppers and onions and only use 1 cup of sauerkraut. Here is a healthy alternative to pork chops. Way less fat, way less cholesterol, but way awesome flavor!
1 lb. turkey breast cutlets
2 tsps. coarse black pepper
2 tbsps. grape seed oil
1 red bell pepper and 1 green or yellow bell pepper, julienne sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, finely diced
2 tsps. caraway seeds
1 tsp. Italian red pepper flakes, optional
1-2 cups sauerkraut (I like Libby's)
Season turkey cutlets with pepper, then sauté in 1 tbsp. oil about 5 minutes on each side, turning once. Remove from pan and set aside. Add remaining oil and sauté peppers, onions, and garlic on high for about 5-7 minutes. Add sauerkraut, caraway seeds, and cooked turkey. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Serves 4.
