  • 4 Turkey schnitzel
  • 125 g Mozzarella
  • 4 Tomatoes
  • 400 g Spaghetti

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 225 ° C. Wash turkey schnitzel and pat dry. Cut the mozzarella into thin slices. Wash tomatoes, roughly dice. Heat oil in a large pan. Fry the schnitzel in it for about 4 minutes on each side. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the mozzarella and tomatoes on top. Bake turkey schnitzel in the hot oven for about 5 minutes using the grill function. Take out, arrange and spread some pesto on the tomatoes.
  • In the meantime, cook the spaghetti in plenty of boiling salted water according to the instructions on the packet. Drain the spaghetti (collecting some of the cooking water), drain and return to the saucepan. Mix with 3-4 tbsp pesto and 4-5 tbsp cooking water.
