What is Oil for sautéed turkey?
Oil for sautéed turkey is a general-purpose cooking oil added to the pan while turkey is cooked over fairly high heat. It is not a separate sauce or a specific blend: the exact oil depends on the cook and recipe, and a mild-flavoured option lets the meat and other ingredients take centre stage.
Use a little to brown strips or cubes of turkey, often alongside onions, peppers or other vegetables. It works in a quick skillet meal served with rice, potatoes or bread, and leftovers can go into wraps or sandwiches. Nutritionally, the oil is essentially all fat, so it contributes concentrated energy rather than protein or fibre. If you want a lighter dish, measure out just enough to coat the pan, or use a good non-stick skillet.
