Tips:
· If you don't want to slice and pound the turkey breast yourself, look for turkey breast for scaloppini or ask your butcher to prepare it for you. ·The tomato jam may be made two or three days ahead of time and stored in a tightly-sealed container in the refrigerator. Reheat gently before serving.
