Description
A festive turkey breast rolled with savory herbs and sweet cranberries, then wrapped in crispy beef bacon for a juicy, flavorful holiday main dish.
Ingredients
- 8 slices beef bacon (thinly sliced)
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries, chopped
- 3 pound boneless turkey breast
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3/4 cup chopped fresh herbs (parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme)
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- Kosher salt and black pepper
- 1/4 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Butterfly the turkey breast by cutting horizontally almost all the way through, then open it like a book. Pound the meat between plastic wrap until it reaches an even 1/2-inch thickness.
- Season the turkey liberally with kosher salt and black pepper. In a bowl, mix the chopped herbs, dried cranberries, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, and olive oil until combined.
- Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the turkey, leaving a 1-inch border. Roll the turkey up tightly into a log.
- Place the roll seam-side down on a baking sheet. Drape the beef bacon slices over the top, tucking the ends underneath to secure the roll.
- Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Let the meat rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Notes
If you cannot find beef bacon, thinly sliced beef pastrami or turkey bacon are excellent alternatives.
