Turkey Breast Fillet with Mayo-Free Coleslaw

🦃 Fillets with Fit Coleslaw: The Perfect Crunch

Coleslaw is a wonderful garnish for the incredible volume and crunch it provides, but the original recipe drowns it in a huge amount of mayonnaise and sugar. We will transform this classic using a sauce based on plain yogurt and mustard, accompanying it with lean turkey fillets to obtain a hyper-proteic, low-fat, and extremely high-fiber dish.

🥬 Why it is exceptionally healthy

• Anti-Cancer Glucosinolates: Raw cabbage is a cruciferous vegetable rich in sulfur compounds that the body uses in its natural cellular detoxification phases.
• Substitute Probiotics: By swapping mayonnaise for plain yogurt, we eliminate oxidized fats and provide live bacteria that favor the gut microbiome.
• Pure Protein: Turkey breast is one of the meats with the best protein/fat ratio, ideal for those seeking muscle definition or weight control.

📝 Step-by-Step Preparation

1. Cutting the Cabbage: Cut 7 oz (200g) of white cabbage and 1.8 oz (50g) of red cabbage (for color) into extremely fine strips (julienne). Peel and grate 1 medium carrot. Put everything in a large bowl.
2. The Fit Dressing (The Secret): In a bowl, mix 1 plain unsweetened yogurt (4.4 oz / 125g, better if it is 0% Greek), 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, a pinch of salt, pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of sweetener (erythritol or stevia) to imitate the sweet touch of the original coleslaw.
3. Maceration: Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot. Stir very well, kneading the cabbage slightly. Let it rest in the fridge for at least 15 minutes (this step softens the cabbage and makes it more digestible).
4. The Meat: Take 10.5 oz (300g) of turkey breast fillets. Brush them with just a few drops of EVOO, salt, and black pepper.
5. The Griddle: Heat a skillet or griddle over very high heat. Sear the turkey fillets for 2 minutes per side so they are golden on the outside and juicy on the inside.
6. The Contrast: Serve the hot turkey fillets immediately next to a generous mountain of fresh, crunchy coleslaw.
