Method

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the turkey thin across the grain and brown it fast in the oil, 3 minutes, then set it aside.
  2. Brown the mushrooms and onion hard in the same pan, 6 minutes, then add the garlic and thyme for a minute.
  3. Fold the cottage cheese through the mushrooms, season with the salt, layer with the turkey in a 6-inch (15 cm) dish. Cover right to the edges with the mozzarella and Parmesan and bake 18 minutes, until golden and bubbling and 165°F (74°C) inside. Scatter the chives over and finish with the lemon juice at the table.
Chef’s tipAcross the grain. Look at the lines running down the breast and cut at ninety degrees to them. It is the difference between tender and chewy.
Make it twoDoubles cleanly and keeps three days; it is one of the few bakes that reheats without drying.
