Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- For the turkey breasts:
- Arrange a wire rack over a baking sheet. Combine the butter with the herbs. Loosen the skin on the turkey breasts and place the butter between the skin and breast meat, working out to the edges evenly. Place a bay leaf between the skin and meat. Spray the skin with olive oil, and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast to 165 degrees internal temperature, about 1 hour. Remove and cover loosely with foil to cool back to room temp, reserving the drippings for the gravy. Then cover and store for a make-ahead meal, as well as another night's meal, such as the Turkey Club Enchilada Casserole.
- For the stuffing:
- Melt 6 tablespoons butter in large skillet over medium heat. Grease a casserole dish with 1 tablespoon of remaining butter, and reserve the rest to dot the top of the stuffing once it is in its casserole dish. To the melted butter, add the herbs, celery, apples, onions, bay leaf and some salt and pepper. Cook to tender, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the stuffing cubes and moisten with the stock until damp, but not wet. Fill the casserole dish and dot the top with butter. Cover and refrigerate to store.
- For the gravy:
- Melt the butter in a large skillet and season liberally with black pepper. Whisk in the flour until light golden in color. Then whisk in the stock and Worcestershire and simmer at low boil to thicken. Add any pan drippings from the roasted turkey breasts. Once the gravy lightly coats the back of a spoon, add a ladle of it to the egg yolk while beating with fork. Then add the yolk back to gravy to gloss it up, stir in. Add the mustard, if using. Add salt to taste. Cool and store.
- To serve:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the rack in center of oven.
- Bring the stuffing to room temp, then bake until crispy on top and hot through.
- Reheat the gravy over medium heat, partially covered and stirring occasionally.
- While the stuffing is in the oven and the gravy is reheating, heat up an additional couple cups of plain stock in a high-sided skillet. Thinly slice 1 turkey breast, removing the bay leaf when you get to it.
- For each sandwich, very lightly toast a slice of bread and place on a dinner plate. Top the bread with a scoop of stuffing (I use an ice cream scoop). Set a few slices of turkey into broth to heat through. Arrange the turkey slices over the mound of stuffing. Liberally ladle the gravy over the top of the sandwich and garnish with chopped parsley. Save any leftover gravy for another meal, such as the Turkey Club Enchilada Casserole later in the week.

OPEN-FACED HOT TURKEY SANDWICHES
Sometimes life requires an open-faced turkey sandwich with gravy and mashed potatoes, alongside a glop of cranberry sauce. It is neither a Thanksgiving meal nor a Christmas one, but simply a low-fi American reminder of diners and TV dinners and blankets and comfort itself: soft meat and rich, salty gravy over tight-crumbed bread, with buttery mash and a tang of cranberry. My recipe calls for roasting buttered turkey thighs in the oven while the potatoes were cooking, skin-side down to crisp the skin and allow the fat to render into the pan, creating sticky bits of fond you'll use to build a base for gravy. Pile the sliced meat onto lightly toasted bread, drench it with gravy and serve alongside the potatoes and peas. Adding canned cranberry sauce, in this application, is no sin.

Steps:
- Remove turkey and butter from the refrigerator an hour or so before cooking, so that they are approaching room temperature when the turkey goes into the oven.
- Heat oven to 400. Rub turkey with butter, using your fingers to slide butter under the skin. Season the turkey with salt, pepper, sage and lemon zest.
- Place turkey thighs, skin-side down, into a cast-iron skillet or medium-size oven-safe gratin pan, and roast in the oven for 30 minutes. Turn turkey thighs over, add the wine to the pan or skillet and continue roasting for another 30 minutes or so, basting occasionally, until the turkey is cooked through, golden and crisp, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the turkey's thickest part reads in the neighborhood of 165 degrees. Remove turkey thighs from the pan, and allow to rest on a cutting board while you make the gravy.
- Heat the stock in a small pot. Drain off all but four tablespoons of the fat in the pan or gratin dish. Place pan or dish over low heat on the stove, and whisk the flour into it to make a roux. Stir the roux for 3 to 4 minutes, and then slowly start to add the stock to it, whisking as you do, until the mixture is smooth. Cook, continuing to stir, until the gravy has thickened, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Add the cream, milk or half-and-half, stir and allow the gravy to thicken again, 2 to 3 minutes more. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- To make the sandwiches, carve meat and skin from the turkey thighs, and assemble two separate piles. Toast the bread, and lay one slice on each plate. Put a pile of the meat on each piece of toast, spreading it across the surface of the bread. Absolutely drench each sandwich with the gravy, and serve alongside buttered peas, mashed potatoes and a dollop of cranberry sauce. For this application, canned cranberry sauce is, by etiquette, required.

HOT TURKEY SANDWICHES
You've probably noticed that December has been inspiring me to make more rich and traditional recipes. It's probably because the cold weather makes me crave meals that warm up my insides. I polled my close friends and decided to create a hot turkey sandwich recipe. I had no idea what I was getting myself into... To give you an idea, here's a list of the contradictory advice I got from my (difficult) friends: "Make it with peas. " "Without peas, Marilou, or I'll never talk to you again. " "Find a way to keep the bread from soaking through after two minutes. " "Find a good sauce recipe that soaks into the bread like it's supposed to. " "If your recipe calls for a can of St-Hubert sauce, I'm in! " So basically, I knew from the start that I wouldn't be able to make everyone happy. But I tried to come up with a simple recipe you can modify to your liking. ????

- In a bowl, combine all the peas ingredients and season well. Set aside.
- When it's time to serve, make sure everything is hot (turkey, peas, and sauce) and assemble the sandwich in that order: a slice of bread, some meat and peas, a bit of sauce, another slice of bread, more peas, and more sauce.

DELI-STYLE ROAST TURKEY FOR SANDWICHES
I'm excited to be sharing just how simple and easy it is to roast and slice your own turkey breast for sandwiches, which might not seem like something worth doing-until you actually do it. And no, enjoying fresh turkey sandwiches once a year after Thanksgiving is not enough.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees (230 degrees C).
- Pat turkey breast with a paper towel to remove any excess liquid and place into a baking dish just big enough to fit it. Use the tip of a sharp small knife to poke the skin of the turkey breast all over. Drizzle over olive oil and use tongs to rub; flip turkey breast over a few times, or until all surfaces are coated with the oil. You can also use a brush. Set aside for 15 to 20 minutes.
- While turkey rests, mix salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, oregano, and paprika together in a small bowl until thoroughly combined.
- Use tongs to grab the turkey breast with one hand while using your other hand to sprinkle the spice rub evenly over the entire surface, including the sides. Finish with the skin side facing up.
- Add about 1/2 inch of water to the bottom of the baking dish.
- Place prepared turkey breast into the center of the oven. Immediately lower the heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Roast until a probe thermometer stuck into center of the thickest part of the breast reads 150 degrees F (65 degrees C), about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Let cool before wrapping. Chill thoroughly in the refrigerator, about 8 hours, or overnight. Once meat is cold, slice thinly and serve.

Tips:
- Leftover turkey can be cooked, sliced, and used for sandwiches.
- Using butter to fry the turkey keeps it moist.
- If you slice the leftover turkey thin enough, it will reheat quickly.
- The original recipe uses two slices of American cheese, but you can choose any type of cheese you like.
- Mayo adds a creamy richness to the sandwich, but you can substitute Greek yogurt if you're looking for a healthier option.
- Rye bread is a classic choice for a turkey sandwich, but you can use any type of bread you like.
- You can add avocado, lettuce, or tomato to your sandwich for extra flavor and texture.
- If you're using a slow cooker, cook the turkey on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.
- You can also use a pressure cooker to cook the turkey. Cook the turkey on high pressure for 15 minutes, then let the pressure release naturally.
- To make a gravy, whisk together the pan drippings from the turkey with a little bit of flour and milk.
Conclusion:
The hot turkey sandwich is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious hot turkey sandwich that the whole family will love.
