Steps:
- Lay the turkey breast skin-side down on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle the meat with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Lightly cover with plastic wrap and chill until ready to assemble, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
- For the stuffing: Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up any large pieces with a wooden spoon, until lightly browned but not fully cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Return the skillet to medium-high heat and melt 2 tablespoons of the butter. Add the celery, onion and half of the thyme and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally and scraping up any brown bits, until tender and just beginning to brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the bowl with the sausage.
- Return the skillet to medium-high heat, pour in the wine and scrape up any brown bits. Simmer until the smell of alcohol subsides, about 2 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a simmer, then pour into the sausage mixture. Add the stuffing mix and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper, cover and chill until ready to assemble.
- For the mushrooms: Return the same skillet to medium-high heat and melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the mushrooms and cook, undisturbed, until they begin to brown in spots, about 3 minutes. Toss and cook on the other side, undisturbed, until browned in spots, about 3 minutes more. Add 1 tablespoon butter, the remaining garlic and thyme and some salt and pepper and continue to cook, tossing occasionally, until browned and very fragrant, about 3 minutes more. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool. Cover and chill until ready to assemble.
- For the green beans: Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and line a plate with a paper towel. Add the green beans to the boiling water and cook until bright green and crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Scoop out with a slotted spoon and transfer to the lined plate. Let cool. Keep the water boiling.
- For the squash: Line a plate with a paper towel. Add the squash to the boiling water and cook until tender but still holding their shape, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to the lined plate and let cool. Cover and chill until ready to assemble.
- Position an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F. Set a rack inside a rimmed baking sheet and coat the rack with cooking spray.
- Spread the stuffing over the turkey breast, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Gently press the stuffing into the meat to adhere. Position the turkey so that one of the short sides is facing you. Starting 3 inches from the bottom edge, arrange a compact row of cranberries crosswise over the stuffing (maintaining the 1-inch border on the left and right sides). Arrange a compact row of green beans crosswise over the breast, next to but not covering the cranberries. Arrange the mushrooms crosswise over the breast, next to but not covering the green beans. Arrange the butternut squash crosswise over the breast, next to but not covering the mushrooms and ending no further than halfway down the length of the turkey.
- Working from the bottom edge, roll the breast up tightly. Tuck in any filling that spills out of the sides once the turkey breast is rolled completely. Tie the roulade tightly with kitchen twine every 2 inches to make a compact log. Tie once more lengthwise to keep the filling secure. Place the roulade seam-side down on the prepared rack and baking sheet. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then brush over the roulade. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Transfer to the oven and pour 6 cups warm water into the baking sheet. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted perpendicularly into the center of the thickest part of the roulade registers 150 degrees F, 3 to 3 1/2 hours (check on the skin after 2 hours and cover with foil once it is deep golden brown). Let sit at room temperature, loosely covered with foil, for 1 hour; the internal temperature will continue to climb and will reach 165 degrees F. Remove the twine, cut into 1-inch slices and serve with warm gravy.

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.

Steps:
- Place the dried figs and cranberries in a small saucepan and pour in the Calvados and 1/2 cup water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then lower the heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and celery and saute until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage, crumbling it into small bits with a fork, and saute, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes, until cooked and browned. Add the figs and cranberries with the liquid, the chopped rosemary, and pine nuts, and cook for 2 more minutes. Scrape up the brown bits with a wooden spoon.
- Place the stuffing mix in a large bowl. Add the sausage mixture, chicken stock, egg, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and stir well. (The stuffing may be prepared ahead and stored in the refrigerator overnight.)
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Place a baking rack on a sheet pan.
- Lay the butterflied turkey breast skin side down on a cutting board. Sprinkle the meat with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Spread the stuffing in a 1/2-inch-thick layer over the meat, leaving a half-inch border on all sides. Don't mound the stuffing or the turkey will be difficult to roll. (Place the leftover stuffing in a buttered gratin dish and bake for the last 45 minutes of roasting alongside the turkey.) Starting at 1 end, roll the turkey like a jelly roll and tuck in any stuffing that tries to escape on the sides. Tie the roast firmly with kitchen twine every 2 inches to make a compact cylinder.
- Place the stuffed turkey breast seam side down on the rack on the sheet pan. Brush with the melted butter, sprinkle generously with salt and pepper, and roast for 1 3/4 to 2 hours, until an instant-read thermometer registers 150 degrees F in the center. (I test in a few places.) Cover the turkey with aluminum foil and allow it to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes. Carve 1/2-inch-thick slices and serve warm with the extra stuffing.
TURKEY BREAST ROULADE WITH GARLIC AND ROSEMARY
Ina Garten has been known as the Barefoot Contessa since she opened a gourmet store by that name in East Hampton, N.Y., in 1985. She shared this recipe from her book "Modern Comfort Food" with The Times for Thanksgiving in 2020, when many cooks were looking for alternatives to whole turkey. If you don't like fennel seeds, leave them out: Garlic, sage and rosemary give this roast the flavors of Italian porchetta, and it will still be fragrant, juicy and delicious without them.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium (10-inch) skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and fennel seeds and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the onion is tender. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Off the heat, stir in the chopped sage and the rosemary; set aside to cool.
- Set the turkey breast on a cutting board and open it up, skin side down. If necessary, pound the turkey to an even thickness of about 1 inch. Sprinkle the turkey with 4 teaspoons salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Once the onion mixture has cooled, spread it evenly on the meat. Grate the butter and sprinkle it on top. Arrange the prosciutto on top to totally cover the filling and meat.
- Starting at one long end of the turkey breast, roll the meat up jelly-roll style to make a compact cylindrical roulade, ending with the seam side down. Tie the roulade tightly with kitchen twine at 2 to 2 1/2-inch intervals to ensure that it will roast evenly. Slip the whole sage leaves under the twine down the center of the roulade.
- Place the roulade, seam side down, in a roasting pan and pat the skin dry with paper towels. Brush the skin with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pour the wine and 1 cup water into the roasting pan, surrounding the turkey with the liquids without pouring them directly over the roulade. Roast for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, until the skin is golden brown and the internal temperature is 150 degrees.
- Remove from the oven, cover the turkey with foil, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Remove the string, slice the roulade crosswise in 1/2-inch-thick slices, and serve warm with the pan juices.
TUSCAN TURKEY ROULADE
This rolled and tied bird cooks evenly, slices into beautiful disks, and is saturated with the rich herb-and-garlic flavors of porchetta. If you let your butcher do the work of removing the bones, preparing it is remarkably straightforward.

Steps:
- Combine the fennel, juniper, 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1 tablespoon ground black pepper in a small bowl and set aside. Combine the pancetta, rosemary, red pepper flakes, garlic and lemon zest in a small food processor and pulse several times to make a coarse paste, scraping down the bowl as needed.
- Open the turkey like a book, skin-side down, on a large cutting board. (It should look like an irregular rectangle with the drumsticks on one side and the wings on the other.) Pull off the long, thin tenderloins from the breast, and lay them on the inside of the thigh meat to even out the thickness of the turkey. Sprinkle the inside of the turkey with some of the salt mixture, and top evenly with the pancetta mixture.
- Roll up the turkey starting at the edge closest to you, and continue to roll forming a tight log, finishing with the seam-side down. Tie with kitchen string at 1-inch intervals, maintaining as tight a log as possible. Adjust the string to make the drumstick as straight as possible. Tuck the wings behind the turkey's back and sprinkle the outside with the remaining salt mixture. (The turkey can be prepared to this point up to 1 day in advance.)
- Position an oven rack in the lower third of the oven, remove the top racks and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Fit a wire rack into a baking sheet and put the turkey on top. Brush all over with olive oil and turn the turkey seam-side up. Roast until the skin is browned and crisp, about 1 hour. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and carefully flip the turkey using a large spatula.
- Return the turkey to the oven and continue cooking until the top is deep golden brown, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the turkey registers 155 degrees F, 50 to 60 minutes more. Remove from the oven, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 20 minutes before slicing. (The turkey will continue cooking as it rests.)
- Cut off the string with scissors, taking care not to tear the skin. Cut the turkey into 1/2- to 3/4-inch slices and separate the drumsticks and wings. Serve immediately.
ROSEMARY ROASTED TURKEY
Perching a turkey on top of onions makes for a tender and flavorful bird. The onions will cook down and caramelize in the pan drippings-if you like, you can serve them alongside the carved turkey, and spread the roasted garlic on bread or rolls. The pairing of white wine and rosemary creates a mouthwatering gravy. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, garlic, rosemary, basil, Italian seasoning, black pepper and salt. Set aside.
- Wash the turkey inside and out; pat dry. Remove any large fat deposits. Loosen the skin from the breast. This is done by slowly working your fingers between the breast and the skin. Work it loose to the end of the drumstick, being careful not to tear the skin.
- Using your hand, spread a generous amount of the rosemary mixture under the breast skin and down the thigh and leg. Rub the remainder of the rosemary mixture over the outside of the breast. Use toothpicks to seal skin over any exposed breast meat.
- Place the turkey on a rack in a roasting pan. Add about 1/4 inch of water to the bottom of the pan. Roast in the preheated oven 3 to 4 hours, or until the internal temperature of the bird reaches 180 degrees F (80 degrees C).
