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.

Time 1h35m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon butter
1 leek, cleaned and sliced
1 rib celery, diced
2 cups sliced wild cultivated mushrooms (chanterelles, porcinis, creminis, etc.)
2 teaspoons herbs de Provence
2 tablespoon shallots, chopped
1 cup chicken stock
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups toasted bread crumbs
1/2 boneless turkey breast, about 2 1/2 pounds
Cranberry Coulis, recipe follows
1 (12 ounce) bag cranberries
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Heat a large saute pan, add butter, and add the leeks and celery. Saute for 3 minutes and add the mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes and add the herbs and shallots, cooking for 2 more minutes. Add the stock and bring to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper, and pour over the bread crumbs in a mixing bowl. Mix well and cool.
  • Butterfly the turkey breast open with a sharp boning knife. Using a meat mallet, pound the meat to expand it and make it of an even thickness. Spoon the stuffing lengthwise across the breast and roll up, tucking in the meat at each end. Tie the roulade with butchers' twine.
  • Season with salt and pepper, and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until a thermometer reads 150 degrees in the center. Remove and allow to rest for 10 minutes before removing the twine and slicing. Serve with Cranberry Coulis.
  • Place the ingredients in a non-reactive saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook until the cranberries have burst, about 20 minutes and transfer to a blender. Blend until smooth, season, and reserve.
