Sweet and tangy honey mustard with a hot pepper kick forms a thick glaze over broiled turkey breasts for this 10-minute dinner. Broken pecan pieces add flavor and crunch.

Thin turkey cutlets take only a few minutes to cook. You can shorten the cooking time even more by using cooked boneless, skinless turkey breasts. They only need to go under the broiled for 2 minutes to warm through and then add the honey mustard glaze for one minute.

Cannellini beans are large, white Italian kidney beans. They're available, canned in most supermarkets.

Wine suggestion: Sweet, zingy honey-mustard would go well with a fruity Australian shiraz.
