Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 large boneless turkey breast half with skin ((about 2 1/2 lbs))
1-1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
6 to 8 pieces cooking twine
1 teaspoon salted butter (softened)
5 ounces whole wheat french bread (cut into small cubes)
1/2 tablespoon butter
1/2 medium onion (minced)
1 large stalk celery (minced)
4 fresh sage leaves (minced)
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon turkey or poultry seasoning
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and fresh pepper (to taste)
1 large egg (beaten)
3/4 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons dried cranberries (chopped)
1 piece Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil
2 cups turkey or chicken broth
2 leaves fresh sage
3/4 teaspoon turkey or poultry seasoning
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Stale cubed bread works best here, you can cut the bread the night before and let it sit to harden.
  • If your bread is fresh, preheat the oven and bake the bread cubes on a large baking sheet at 250°F for about 30 minutes, stirring half way until the bread is completely firm.
  • In a large, deep nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the butter; when melted add onion, celery, parsley, sage, turkey or poultry seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper and saute on medium low until soft, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let cool a few minutes then transfer to a large bowl and add the toasted bread and cranberries. Add broth, egg and mix well.
  • Remove the skin from the turkey breast and set aside keeping the skin in one piece and reserve for later.
  • Trim the fat and remove the tenderloin.
  • Place the turkey breast on a plastic cutting board and butterfly it open (see notes).
  • Then cover the breast with plastic wrap and pound it to about 1/4" thickness in a rectangle shape.
  • Season both sides of the turkey with salt. Spread the stuffing onto the pounded turkey breast leaving a 3/4 inch border around all the edges.
  • Roll it jelly roll style and top with the skin.
  • Cut cooking twine long enough to tie the breast with 4 to 6 pieces of twine. Cut off extra twine. Spread the butter on top.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Set the rack to the center of the oven.
  • Transfer to a baking pan and cover tight with Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil. Cook in the center of the oven until an internal temperature in the center of the stuffing reaches 165 degrees, about 45 to 55 minutes.
  • Uncover the foil, then broil on high 5 to 7 minutes until the skin is golden. Allow it to cool 5 minutes while you make the gravy.
  • Combine all the gravy ingredients in a pot along with any pan drippings and bring to a simmer, whisking well over medium-high heat.
  • Cover and simmer over low heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until thickened. Discard the herbs.
  • Cut off the twine on the breast and slice into 12 slices. Serve with gravy.

CRANBERRY STUFFED TURKEY BREASTS



Cranberry Stuffed Turkey Breasts image

I made these once for a holiday dinner party, and they were such a hit that I started making them for Thanksgiving instead of a whole turkey.

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Turkey     Breasts

Time 2h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (12 ounce) package herb-seasoned bread stuffing mix
2 skinless boneless turkey breasts
1 cup chopped pecans
2 (8 ounce) packages dried, sweetened cranberries
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 lettuce leaves
½ cup pecan halves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare stuffing mix according to package directions. Set aside to cool.
  • With a sharp knife, butterfly breasts open to lay flat. Place each breast between two sheets of waxed paper, and flatten with a mallet. Spread the prepared stuffing to within 1/4 inch of the edge of each breast. Sprinkle each one with chopped pecans and dried cranberries, reserving some of the cranberries for garnish. Roll up tightly in a jellyroll style, starting with the long end. Tuck in ends, and tie in sections with string, about 4 sections around the middle and one running the length of the roll to secure the ends.
  • Heat olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully brown rolls on all sides.
  • Place skillet in oven, uncovered. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature is at 170 degrees F (78 degrees C) when taken with a meat thermometer. Do not let these get overly dry.
  • Allow rolls to set for 15 minutes before removing string, and slicing into 1/2 to 3/4 inch circles. Leave one roll whole, and slice the other for presentation. Stuffing will be spiraled into meat. Present on your prettiest platter on a bed of curly lettuce, and garnish by sprinkling with the remaining 1/2 cup pecan halves and the reserved dried cranberries.

CRANBERRY STUFFED TURKEY BREAST



Cranberry Stuffed Turkey Breast image

Feel free to make your own stuffing, if you'd rather not use a mix. Adapted from a recipe by Esther Nelson at allrecipes.com.

Provided by DrGaellon

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 1h45m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12 ounce) package herb seasoned stuffing mix
2 skinless boneless turkey breasts
1 1/2 cups dried sweetened cranberries
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup pecan halves
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup turkey stock or 1 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1 tablespoon flour

Steps:

  • Prepare stuffing according to package directions. (Optional: add sauteed onions and celery to the stuffing.) Set aside.
  • Butterfly the turkey breasts open, until they lay flat. Place each opened breast between two sheets of waxed paper or heavy plastic, then pound flat with a kitchen mallet; they should be about 1/4" thick.
  • Spread half the stuffing on each breast, to within 1/4" of the edge. Reserve 1/4 c of dried cranberries, and divide the rest between the two breasts. Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the stuffing as well. Starting at one narrower end, roll the breast tightly. Tie with kitchen twine in three or four places, then one long one the length of the roll.
  • Heat the oil in a skillet until it shimmers. Brown the rolls on all sides, then transfer to a roasting pan. Add the stock to the bottom of the pan, then dot the top of the rolls with the butter 1 tbsp on each.
  • Roast in a preheated 350°F oven for 1 hour, or until juices run clear when nicked with the tip of a knife. Let rest, tented with foil, 15 minutes. Remove strings, then slice 1/2 to 3/4" thick.
  • Meanwhile, strain the pan juices through a sieve. Melt the remaining 1 tbsp butter in a small saucepan. Add the flour and cook 1 minute until the raw cereal taste is gone. Add the pan juices and whisk constantly until thickened. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  • Serve sliced roulades with gravy and sprinkled with remaining dried cranberries and the pecan halves.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before beginning, gather and measure all ingredients and prepare any necessary tools or equipment.
  • Stuffing Consistency: Be careful not to overstuff the turkey breast, as it may burst during cooking. The stuffing should be slightly moist but not wet.
  • Cooking Temperature: Cook the turkey breast until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) as measured by a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast.
  • Resting: Allow the cooked turkey breast to rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • Garnish: Enhance the visual appeal of your dish by garnishing it with fresh herbs, such as parsley or thyme.
