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.

Maple Sage Bacon-Wrapped Turkey Breast with Stuffing Croutons image

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.

Tips:

  • For a crispy and flavorful bacon wrap, use thick-cut bacon and cook it until it's slightly crispy before wrapping it around the turkey roll.
  • To ensure that the turkey roll is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The turkey should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before it's safe to eat.
  • To add extra flavor to the turkey roll, try marinating it in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices before cooking. You can also stuff the turkey roll with your favorite fillings, such as bread cubes, vegetables, or cheese.
  • If you're short on time, you can use pre-cooked bacon to wrap the turkey roll. Just be sure to heat the bacon through before serving.
  • Serve the bacon-wrapped turkey roll with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or stuffing.

Conclusion:

Bacon-wrapped turkey roll is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for any occasion. This recipe is a great way to use up leftover turkey, but it can also be made with fresh turkey breast. With its crispy bacon exterior and juicy, flavorful interior, this turkey roll is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
