Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 2 | Butter |
| 1 | Margarine |
| 1 | Onion |
| 1 | Celery |
| 1/2 | Carrot |
| 1 | Dried rosemary |
| 1 | Dried thyme |
| – | Fresh ground black pepper |
| 2 | Salt |
| 1 | Whole berry cranberry sauce |
| 2 | Brown sugar |
| 1 | Lemon juice |
| 1/2 | Ground ginger |
Instructions:
-
To make the stuffing, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the onion, celery, and carrots for about 5 minutes or until the onion turns translucent.
-
Add the stock and seasonings to the skillet, then remove it from the heat. Mix in the bread cubes and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
-
For the glaze, combine all the glaze ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. Set aside 1/2 cup of the glaze to serve cold with the meal.
-
Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) and lightly grease a baking dish or a small roasting pan.
-
Place the turkey breast on a cutting board. Hold a knife parallel to the board and slice the meat through the middle, leaving the last inch intact.
-
Open the meat like a book and cover it with plastic wrap. Pound the meat with a meat mallet to an even thickness.
-
Cover one side of the meat with the prepared stuffing.
-
Fold the other side over and secure it with toothpicks along the edges.
-
Transfer the stuffed turkey breast to the prepared baking dish and pour the remaining cranberry glaze over the top.
-
Bake the stuffed turkey breast, uncovered, for 60 to 90 minutes, or until it’s cooked through and the juices run clear.
-
Let the stuffed turkey breast rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
