Low Carb Bacon Wrapped Turkey Breast Recipes

LOW CARB BACON WRAPPED TURKEY BREAST RECIPE

Steps:

• On a flat work surface, lay the bacon in a row with the slices butting up against each other.
• Place the turkey breast on top.
• Sprinkle the seasoning over the turkey breast, being sure to get both sides.
• Wrap the end pieces of bacon around the turkey breast first, then follow by the middle pieces.
• Transfer to a parchment lined cookie sheet and cover loosely with foil.
• Bake at 350 F. for approximately 1 hour. Time may vary by oven and based on thickness of turkey breast. It's done when a meat thermometer reads at least 165 F.
• Remove foil in the last 10 minutes of cooking to allow the bacon to brown nicely.
• Remove from oven and let sit for about 5-10 minutes.
• Slice and serve.

BACON-WRAPPED TURKEY ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a baking sheet.
• Lay 1 turkey breast smooth-side down on a cutting board. There will be a thin side and a thick side. At about the midway point between them, slice horizontally into the thick side to within 2 inches of the outer edge so that you can open that side like a book and have 1 long piece. Pound the turkey with a mallet to an even thickness of about 1 inch. Repeat with the remaining breast.
• Place a large piece of parchment on a work surface. Arrange 12 slices of bacon horizontally on the parchment in 6 lines, with 2 slices of bacon slightly overlapping per line. Arrange the 6 lines so they are touching but not overlapping, with the ends lining up to form a rectangle. Working with the remaining 9 slices, weave the bacon in an over-under pattern by lifting alternating slices of the horizontal bacon lines and vertically placing a slice of bacon over or under as needed to create a woven lattice design.
• Place the turkey breasts horizontally on the bacon, overlapping slightly. Scoop the stuffing into the center of the turkey. Holding the bacon and turkey, roll them up away from you, making sure the roll ends up seam-side down. (Use the parchment to help you keep the bacon and turkey together as you roll.) Tie with twine in 3 spots across the roll and once lengthwise. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake until the internal temperature registers 155 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 1 hour 40 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes. Let rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Slice and serve with the gravy and cranberry sauce.

BACON WRAPPED TURKEY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Sprinkle sage and garlic powder over the entire turkey. Wrap turkey completely with bacon. Place turkey on a roasting rack and place roasting rack in a large baking dish. Pour water into the base of the dish.
• Bake turkey in the preheated oven, basting every 45 minutes with juices in baking dish, until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 3 1/2 to 4 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
