Maybe you feel the same way, but this fall you've been so busy, you still think it's October. Or maybe you just don't want to deal with all those leftovers: turkey sandwiches, turkey soup, and so on. Regardless, this meal is for you, Thanksgiving dinner for four people in 15 minutes. No prepping ahead. No leftovers. No frantic calls to the Meat and Poultry Hotline. ("Is my turkey still good if it's been frozen since the Reagan administration?")
My turkey is in the form of cutlets, available in most supermarkets. Some markets have boneless turkey breast halves from which cutlets can be sliced, then pounded thin for fast cooking. (Try to get the butcher to do this for you.) The bread stuffing is a quick version of what Mom makes every year. You even have something Mom never made, fresh cranberry relish. (We always got the maroon slinky that came out of a can.) If you'd rather not deal with fresh cranberries, jazz up canned cranberry sauce by folding two tablespoons of chopped pecans and two tablespoons of finely chopped candied ginger into it.
