Pan-Seared Savory Turkey Crisps with Quick Glaze

1.Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the Marmite, BBQ sauce, Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon of water until a smooth glaze forms. Set aside.

2.Prepare the Turkey: In a separate bowl, toss the turkey slices with the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and kosher salt until evenly coated.

3.Heat Skillet: Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet (cast iron preferred) over medium-high heat until hot. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your pan.

4.Sear the Turkey: Carefully place the seasoned turkey slices in the hot skillet in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap significantly. Do not overcrowd the pan; this is crucial for crisping rather than steaming.

5.First Crisp: Cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side. The exact time depends on the thickness of the slices. Flip when the edges begin to curl inward and the surface appears dry and deeply browned.

6.Apply Glaze: Once crispy, remove the turkey slices from the pan and place them momentarily on a plate lined with a paper towel to drain excess oil.

7.Caramelize Glaze: Return the heat to medium. Briefly brush both sides of the warm turkey slices lightly with the prepared savory glaze. Return the lightly glazed slices to the hot skillet for 30 to 60 seconds, flipping once, just until the glaze sets and slightly caramelizes. Watch carefully to prevent burning.

8.Serve: Remove immediately from the skillet. Serve warm as crispy, savory bites.
