The longer the turkey marinades, the more intense the flavor. Because cutlets are thin, you risk negatively affecting their texture with a lengthier soak time in an acidic ingredient.
Transfer the marinade to a saucepan if you’d like to use it as a sauce. Bring it to a full boil for 5 minutes to sterilize it after contamination by raw poultry, per the Utah State University Extension.
