Turkey Breast Roulade with Apple and Raisin Stuffing image

A boneless turkey breast is rolled around stuffing with apple and raisins.

Provided by CupcakeSparkles11

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Turkey     Breasts

Time 2h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ½ cups water
¼ cup butter
⅓ cup raisins
1 (6 ounce) package low sodium stuffing mix (such as Stove Top® Lower Sodium Chicken Flavor)
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
1 apple - peeled, cored, and chopped
1 (6 pound) whole bone-in turkey breast with skin
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning

Steps:

  • Place the water, butter, and raisins into a saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, stir in the stuffing mix, cover, and let stand until the stuffing mixture absorbs the liquid, about 5 minutes. Stir 1 tablespoon of poultry seasoning and the apple lightly into the stuffing. Allow the stuffing mixture to cool.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a rack into a roasting pan.
  • Carefully remove the turkey breast skin in one piece without tearing the skin, and set aside. Bone the turkey breast (see notes) keeping the meat in one piece but removing the strip of cartilage and gristle between the two breast halves, if necessary. Pull the two tenderloin sections outward from the main part of the breast, keeping them attached, to expand the boneless piece of turkey into a roughly square-shaped piece of meat. Sprinkle the inside of the breast with salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of poultry seasoning.
  • Spread the stuffing mixture all over the inside of the breast meat piece, and firmly roll the stuffed breast into a compact roll. Spread the reserved turkey skin out, and place the stuffed roll in the middle of the skin. Pull and roll the skin over the stuffed meat, and tie the stuffed roll together with cooking twine. Place the roll onto the roasting rack with the seam side down.
  • Roast the stuffed breast in the preheated oven until the skin is golden brown, the meat is no longer pink inside, and the temperature of the roll, measured at the thickest part, reads 170 degrees F (75 degrees C), 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Allow the roast to stand covered with a tent of aluminum foil for at least 10 minutes before removing the twine for slicing.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, flavorful bread: This is the foundation of your dressing, so make sure you use a bread that you love the taste of. A good quality sourdough or French bread works well.
  • Don't over-dry your bread cubes: You want them to be slightly crispy on the outside, but still soft and moist on the inside. If you over-dry them, they'll be hard and crunchy.
  • Use a variety of apples: This will give your dressing a more complex flavor. Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, and Braeburn are all good choices.
  • Don't be afraid to add other ingredients: Such as nuts, dried fruits, or even sausage. This will help to personalize your dressing and make it your own.
  • Make sure your dressing is moist: You don't want it to be dry and crumbly. If it is, add a little more broth or milk.
  • Season your dressing well: With salt, pepper, and herbs. This will help to bring out all of the flavors.
  • Bake your dressing until it is golden brown: This will give it a nice crispy crust.
  • Let your dressing rest before serving: This will help it to set and absorb all of the flavors.

Conclusion:

Bread, apple and raisin dressing is a classic Thanksgiving side dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple tips, you can make a dressing that is moist, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. So next time you're looking for a delicious and festive side dish, give bread, apple and raisin dressing a try.
