Instructions
Roast the potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 400°F
- Melt the tallow in a cast iron pan on medium/high heat and place the potatoes cut side down in the pan
- Season the potatoes with salt
- Place the pan in the oven and cook the potatoes for about 25-30 min. Do not flip or move the pan
Make the salsa verde & the cabbage slaw
- Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure the cabbage is evenly marinated.
Cook the Turkey
- Season both sides of the turkey with salt and pepper
- Place the beef tallow in a cast iron or heavy-bottomed frying pan and melt on medium/high heat
- Once hot, sear the turkey in the pan with the tallow for about 2 minutes per side. Depending on the thickness of your scallopini, you may need to go longer. The internal temperature should be about 150-155°F and then allowed to rest for about 3 min
- Alternatively, you can cut one of them in half and check that the turkey is cooked all the way through
