Turkey fillet in sauce

If you do not use enough sauce in the preparation of the turkey fillet, it may taste too dry. This is the main secret of a particularly tasty dish.

Ingredients

• 700 g of turkey meat;
• 250 g of olive meat;
• 1.5 st. l. fresh lemon juice;
• 1 bulb;
• 3 garlic cloves;
• oregano, salt, ground black pepper, cumin, and bay leaf.

Directions

1. First of all, prepare the sauce, for which in a deep bowl mix olive oil, fresh lemon juice, dried herbs, salt, and pepper.
2. Cut the onion into the thinnest half-rings and also add it to the sauce. Mix well.
3. Washed and dried piece of fillet put in a saucepan of appropriate size, pour the prepared sauce on top, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for about 8-12 hours. If necessary, the time can be reduced to 2-3 hours, but it is highly undesirable, as the meat does not have time to soak up the aromas of herbs.
4. Put the marinated piece in a deep pan, and pour the rest of the sauce on top. Cover the top with foil and bake for about 30-40 minutes in the oven (200 ° C).
5. To get a small crust, remove the foil, grease the surface of the piece of meat with sauce and leave in the oven for another five to ten minutes.
