It is a lean meat, with low content of cholesterol and fat, with the particularity that this fat is not intertwined, if not under the skin, that can be easily removed. The thigh is the fattest part and the breast is the least.
It offers high quality proteins, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium and selenium and vitamins, especially to highlight B3 or niacin.

We cut the breasts into cubes about the same size and season them.

In a quick pot or large saucepan, put a couple of tablespoons of olive oil and fry the breast cubes until they are well browned on all sides. We remove and reserve in a dish with absorbent paper.

Salamos When the vegetables are well poached, add the fried tomato, stir well until it is integrated. Add the paprika de la Vera, sauté quickly and pour the glass of white wine.

NOTES:

Sometimes, as I remember or not to soak a chorizo ​​pepper, I add its pulp and I do not eat the red pepper.

If I do not have tomato fried home, I add a ripe tomato, grated or chopped without skin or seeds.

I like to give it a slightly spicy touch, so I add, in addition to the sweet paprika, a little of the spiciness; enough so that it remains with "spark" without actually stinging. But if you love the spicy touch, add a little more.

From one day to the next you are very rich, provided you have the precaution that the meat is covered with the liquid, so that it does not dry out.

It's better to stay short in the cooking time than to spend; it's done right away.
And finally, a very important tip for me: After handling the raw turkey, you have to wash your hands and utensils very well (knives, cutting board) I use detergent and a little trickle of bleach.
