ANDREA'S GROUND TURKEY STEAKS

These ground turkey steaks have the wonderful flavor of a pot roast, and it only takes a few minutes to cook. The garlic, onion and mushrooms season the steaks to perfection. I didn't even need to add any salt.

1 lb. ground turkey
1 onion
4-6 cloves of garlic, unpeeled
1 package sliced mushrooms
vegetable oil spray
salt & pepper OPTIONAL

Microwave garlic in small covered microwave safe dish, for about 2 minutes on high. Squeeze garlic out of skins (discard root tips), and mash garlic.

Peel onion and leave whole. Microwave in a small covered microwave safe dish, which has been sprayed with vegetable oil, for about 5 minutes on high, or just til tender. Cut onion into small lengthwise slices with kitchen shears.

NOTE: For prettier onion slices, slice onion before cooking and saute onion on top of the stove instead of cooking it in the microwave.

Add garlic to ground turkey a little at a time, mix lightly. Make into four steaks and cook over medium heat in a pan sprayed with vegetable oil.

Top steaks with half of the cooked onion. Continue cooking, draining water & grease as needed, by placing a plate over steaks and inverting skillet.

Before turning the steaks over, move the onion off the top of the steaks into the pan. Add the remainder of the cooked onions after turning the steaks, top with mushrooms and cover with lid. Decrease the heat to medium low and steam until mushrooms tender and steaks lightly browned. Enjoy!
