Stuffed Turkey Breast

By AJloves2cook

Ingredients

• Turkey Breast
• prepared Stuffing Mix
• Salt to taste
• Fresh Ground Pepper to taste
• 1 Tbsp Butter/Margarine
• 1 Tbsp EVOO

Preparation

Step 1

1) Prepare Stuffing Mix ahead of time.
2) Butterfly the Turkey Breast. Use a sharp, thin knife to cut down the length of the turkey cutting the breast parallel to the board, almost in half just stopping short
of the outside edge. Open out the 2 halves as if you were opening a book. Now you've got a large piece of meat that will cook evenly and is thin enough to roll.
3) Place 2 cups of the stuffing inside each of the breasts and then fold the turkey back over.
4) Place the remaining stuffing in a small baking dish and cook alongside the turkey.
5) Tie in 4 places with kitchen twine and season with salt and pepper.
6) In a roasting pan, heat the 1 tablespoon of butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Put the turkey in the roasting pan and sear all over.
7) Transfer the pan to the oven and roast for about 25 minutes (internal temperature should reach 160º F on an instant-read thermometer).
8) Take the turkey out of the oven and let it rest for 5 to
10 minutes, then cut crosswise into slices.
