BRINED TURKEY BREAST WITH PEACH ROSEMARY GLAZE
This makes such delicious and moist turkey! I have changed the glaze before using dark cherries and cranberries instead of the peaches and that is scrumptious as well. I had to roast it longer to get to 165 degrees, about 40 minutes more, so you may want to plan on extra time. Prep time does not include brining time. This is from Sunny Anderson of Food Network.

Steps:
- For the turkey: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups apple cider, 1/4 cup salt, the thyme and rosemary. Add the turkey breast and enough cold water to cover the bird. Cover and let brine in the refrigerator 2 hours.
- Position the oven racks in the top and bottom of a countertop oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. (For Ninja Foodi - the setting is "Air Roast 425 degrees F)
- Saute the onions in 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the peaches, honey, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce and remaining 2 tablespoons apple cider. Bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer and cook until the peaches break down and the glaze thickens, about 12 minutes.
- Remove the turkey from the brine and pat dry with paper towels (discard the brine). Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with pepper. Place the turkey in an 11.5-by-14-inch roasting pan. Cook on the bottom rack until the skin begins to turn golden, about 15 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and brush the top generously with the glaze (For the Ninja grill it was "Air Roast 350 degrees F). Continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the breast reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, about 45 minutes. Let the turkey rest at least 10 minutes. Its temperature will continue to rise.
- For the stuffing: Meanwhile, mix the stuffing mix with the parsley in a large bowl and set aside.
- Add the butter, celery, onion, thyme, sage and garlic to a large pan over medium heat. Season with a pinch of salt and a nice grind of pepper. Cook until the onions and celery are tender, but the garlic is not browned, about 10 minutes. Remove to the bowl of bread cubes. Pour the stock over the bread and veggie mixture and stir to combine (this is a wet dressing, so it should be very moist).
- Transfer the mixture to a 12-by-8-inch baking dish. Press down to make it compact, and then cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake on the top rack at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes, then raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F and bake, uncovered, until golden brown on top, about 15 minutes more. (For Ninja foodi it was "Air Roast 350 degrees F).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees with rack in the lowest position. Make herb butter: In a small bowl, mix together 4 tablespoons butter with chopped herbs; season generously with salt and pepper.
- Prepare and stuff the turkey. Loosen skin: Working from the neck end, slide fingers under skin until you reach the end of the breast, being careful not to tear the skin; rub herb butter under the skin. Fill neck cavity: Place turkey breast side down. Fill neck cavity with stuffing; avoid packing. Close up by folding skin over and fastening with skewers or trussing needles. Tuck wings: Turn turkey over; bend wing tips underneath bird so they stay in place (you may have to break the bones). Loosely fill large cavity with stuffing. Tie legs: Using cotton kitchen twine, tie legs together securely (they will overlap) so bird retains its shape and moisture during cooking.
- Cut neck into pieces; mix with carrots, onions, celery, and 2 cups water in a large roasting pan. Set roasting rack over vegetables in pan.
- Lift turkey onto rack; rub with remaining tablespoon butter. Season generously with salt and pepper. Tent turkey loosely with foil. Roast 1 hour, then baste every 30 minutes with pan liquids, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of thigh (avoiding bone) registers 125 degrees, about 3 hours.
- Remove foil; raise oven heat to 400 degrees. Continue roasting, basting occasionally, until thigh reaches 180 degrees, 45 to 60 minutes more. Tent with foil if bird browns too quickly; add more water if pan becomes dry. Transfer turkey to a serving platter; cover loosely with foil, and let it rest at least 30 minutes before carving.

Steps:
- Let the turkey sit out for about 1 hour to come to room temperature.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Remove the packet of neck and giblets and set aside. Cut away any fatty pieces near the cavity or neck of the bird and discard. Pat the turkey dry inside and out with paper towels and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper inside and out. Combine the butter and chopped rosemary. Loosen the skin over the breast of the turkey and push half of the butter mixture under the skin and over the breast meat. Rub the skin of the turkey with the rest of the butter mixture. Stuff the cavity of the turkey with the lemons and rosemary sprigs. Tie the legs together with twine. Tuck the wings under the body of the turkey and put it, breast side up, on a rack in a roasting pan.
- Roast the turkey until it begins to turn golden, about 25 minutes. Loosely tent the breast with foil, then reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Continue cooking until the internal temperature near the thigh joint reaches about 155 degrees F. Remove the foil and continue roasting until it reaches 165 degrees F in the thigh joint, about 30 minutes longer. Transfer the turkey and rack to a cutting board and let rest about 30 minutes.
- Present the turkey whole on a platter garnished with the lemons from inside the cavity. To carve, first remove the wishbone, then legs, thighs and wings, and thinly slice the breast meat on an angle to serve.
