Soak in pickle juice and buttermilk. Batter with seasoned flour. Fry them things up.
I like to cut them into pieces the size of chick fila nuggets

Tenderize with meat tenderizer, cut across the grain in thin slices. Brine them for (no longer than) 4 hours, dip in egg wash, batter with bisquick and fry them up.

Don’t complicate it.
Dredge in egg buttermilk and mustard,, then flour and fry at 350. Easy peazy.

Cut up and throw in Italian dressing, hot sauce, and lea and perins for about as long as it takes you to get a bag of Louisiana crispy seasoned chicken fry ready. Use instructions on the box to dredge in wet batter then dry. Peanut oil at 350.

I always take a mallet to the whole breast first. Cut in strips across the grain, soak overnight in buttermilk, egg dip with hot sauce, mix of seasoned potato starch/panko. I’ve had better luck pan frying than deep frying. Grandmas electric skillet ftw.

Leave the breast whole and grill it. No meat mallet or cutting it up.

A honey sriracha dipping sauce is perfect

I guess I’m old school, cut them up, batter them with milk, 1/2 flour and 1/2 pancake batter and fry, sprinkle a little Tony’s

We soak for 12-18 hours in dill pickle juice. Use Louisiana fish fry for breading. Taste like chick fil a.

For the unskilled make sure to fish out the tss pellets.

“Chew lightly” is what I tell everyone. TSS is not forgiving on teeth. I do my best to get them out before cooking but sometimes it happens.

And why in the hell would I want my turkey to taste like a pickle?
