Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large turkey breast
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon ground cumin
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup fresh spinach, or to taste
¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
12 slices reduced-sodium bacon, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Slice turkey breast down the middle and lay it flat. Sprinkle oregano, cumin, salt, and pepper on the inside of turkey. Arrange spinach leaves in 1 layer on 1 of the pieces of turkey and top with a layer of feta cheese. Repeat layering with spinach and feta cheese. Fold the other turkey breast half over the feta layer so the filling is sealed. Wrap the entire turkey breast with bacon. Place wrapped turkey in a baking dish and season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook turkey breast until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Turn on oven's broiler and broil wrapped turkey until bacon is crisp on each side, about 2 minutes per side. Let turkey rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Provided by Katie Lee Biegel

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick cooking spray, for the parchment paper
1/2 pound bacon (about 8 strips)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
Six to eight 2-inch slices baguette
2 tablespoons minced fresh sage
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
One 7- to 8-pound skin-on boneless split turkey breast

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Spray the parchment paper with cooking spray. Shingle the bacon strips side-by-side on the parchment paper, allowing the edges to overlap slightly. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Butter each side of the bread slices, using 2 tablespoons butter in total. Place the bread in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Set aside.
  • Mix the remaining 4 tablespoons butter with the sage, maple syrup, salt, garlic powder, onion powder and pepper in a bowl. Use your fingers, and a knife, if necessary, to make a pocket between the meat and the skin of the turkey. Rub the butter under the skin in an even layer. Place the sheet pan with the bacon on a work surface, then lay the turkey skin-side down on the bacon. Wrap the bacon around the turkey by lifting the parchment and pressing the bacon against it to secure. Place the turkey skin-side up on top of the bread and lift away the parchment.
  • Roast until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Let rest for 30 minutes before slicing. Quarter the stuffing croutons before serving. Serve warm.

Provided by á-23579

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 tablespoons water, divided
1 (6 ounce) package pre-washed baby spinach
1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
1/4 cup shallots, finely chopped, divided
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup (2 ounces) feta cheese, crumbled
1 tablespoon dry breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
1 (1 3/4-pound) boneless turkey breast half
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup dry white wine
3/4 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon butter
Oregano sprigs (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon water and spinach; cover and cook 5 minutes or until spinach wilts, stirring occasionally. Place spinach mixture in a colander, pressing until barely moist. Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons chopped shallots, 2 tablespoons water, and garlic; cover and cook 3 minutes or until moisture evaporates. Spoon shallot mixture into a medium bowl. Add the spinach, feta, breadcrumbs, oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, and egg white. Cut horizontally through center of breast, cutting to, but not through, other side using a sharp knife; open flat as you would a book. Place breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap; pound to an even 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Discard plastic wrap. Spread spinach mixture over turkey, leaving a 1-inch border. Roll up breast, jelly-roll fashion, starting with one short side. Secure at 2-inch intervals with twine. Rub 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper evenly over turkey. Preheat oven to 325°F. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the turkey; cook 5 minutes, browning on all sides. Remove turkey from pan. Add 2 tablespoons shallots to pan; sauté 30 seconds. Stir in wine, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Add turkey and broth to pan; bring to a boil. Cover and bake at 325° for 40 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in thickest portion of turkey registers 170°. Remove turkey from pan; keep warm. Place pan on stovetop over high heat. Combine cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water, stirring with a whisk. Add cornstarch mixture to pan; bring to a boil. Cook 1 minute or until slightly thick, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add butter, stirring with a whisk. Remove and discard twine from turkey. Cut turkey into 8 slices. Serve sauce with the turkey. Garnish with oregano sprigs, if desired.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 (about 1 3/4 pounds) boneless, skinless turkey breast
4 slices (4 ounces) bacon
1 pound white potatoes, well scrubbed and cut into 1-inch chunks
4 (about 8 ounces) carrots, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cut into 1-inch pieces

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine parsley, garlic, lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Slice breast almost in half horizontally, leaving it attached on one side. Open like a book; season inside and out with salt and pepper. Stuff turkey (below) with herb mixture; cover with bacon slices, tucking ends under the turkey.
  • Combine potatoes, carrots, and 1/2 cup water in a microwave-safe dish. Place turkey on top. Cover, and cook on high 15 minutes.
  • Stir vegetable mixture; return dish to microwave. Cook, uncovered, until turkey is 160 degrees on an instant-read thermometer (juices should run clear when meat is pierced with a knife) and vegetables are tender, 5 to 10 minutes more. Let turkey rest 5 minutes before slicing crosswise and serving with vegetables.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Ensure all ingredients and equipment are ready before starting the dish.
  • Choosing Turkey Breast: Select a turkey breast that is fresh and has an even color. Avoid breasts with bruises or discoloration.
  • Cooking Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the turkey breast reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the oven.
  • Resting the Turkey: Let the turkey breast rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute and results in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • Make-Ahead Option: The turkey breast can be prepared up to 3 days in advance. Simply cover and refrigerate the cooked turkey breast until ready to serve.
