Pan-frying is similar to sautéing except that a little more oil is used, the turkey pieces are larger and thicker, and the cooking process usually requires more time. High heat is used to sear the turkey pieces in order to brown the surface and seal in the natural juices.

The required cooking temperature and the method for grilling turkey depend on the thickness of the turkey meat and whether or not the skin is removed. Grilling turkey parts or slices would be done using direct heat. Grilling a whole turkey would be done using indirect heat.
