Turkey (or chicken) Parmesan

2 cups marinara sauce
1/2 cup pine nuts, coarsely chopped
1 oz grated Parmesan cheese (1/4 c)
1/2 t dry Italian seasoning
1 pound turkey or chicken cutlets, about 1/3" thick in 4 pieces
2 t olive oil
2 oz shredded mozzarella

Heat oven to broil. Heat sauce on stove and keep warm. Combine pine nuts, parmesan and Italian seasining in a wide, shallow dish. Season meat on both sides with salt and pepper, then dredge in the mixture, pressing to adhere.

Heat oil in a large skillet. Add meat and cook until coating is golden brown and juices run clear, about 4 min per side. If nuts are browning too quickly, reduce heat.

Place meat in a baking pan and top evenly with cheese and broil until cheese is melty, less than 1 min. Spoon 1/2 cup of sauce on each plate and top each with a piece of meat.
