TURKEY FOR TWO WITH PAN-SAUCE GRAVY
This easy Thanksgiving breast is just the right amount to serve two with leftovers, or four for dinner. While the turkey roasts, its juices mingle in the pan with aromatics and just enough cornstarch to add body, creating an expertly seasoned gravy that's ready at the end of the cooking time.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Season turkey with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes or up to 1 hour, which will help the turkey cook more quickly and evenly.
- Heat oil in a 10" ovenproof skillet over high until just barely smoking. Sear turkey skin side down until deeply golden brown, about 5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Add wine to skillet, scraping up browned bits with a spatula, and cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, add thyme, rosemary, sage, garlic, cornstarch, and 2/3 cup water, and whisk to combine.
- Place breast skin side up in liquid in skillet and transfer skillet to oven. Roast, checking every 20 minutes or so and adding 1/4 cup more water if liquid under turkey is evaporating lower than 1" in pan, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast without touching bone registers 150°F, about 50 minutes (temperature will continue to rise as turkey rests).
- Transfer turkey to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
- Meanwhile, remove herb sprigs from skillet and discard. Whisk liquid remaining in skillet until garlic mostly dissolves, adding a splash of water and heating over high if needed to loosen (gravy should be thick but easily pourable). Whisk butter into gravy until melted. Strain gravy through a fine-mesh sieve into a small pitcher or bowl.
- Serve turkey with gravy alongside.

Steps:
- The morning before roasting, spatchcock one of the turkeys. Remove the backbone by cutting 1 1/2 inches to the left and right of the backbone (opposite side of breast) from front to back. Remove the backbone and reserve for stock if desired. Place the turkey breast-side up on a large flat surface. Place a clean kitchen towel on top and press down firmly on the breast to flatten. Season both sides of the spatchcocked turkey with 1 tablespoon each of the celery salt, granulated garlic, granulated onion and pepper.
- Season the whole turkey inside and out with 1 tablespoon black pepper and the remaining celery salt, granulated garlic and granulated onion. Allow both turkeys to sit in the refrigerator overnight, uncovered, to dry the skin.
- The next day, allow the turkeys to come to room temperature for 1 1/2 hours.
- Arrange one oven rack in the bottom lowest position of the oven and one in the top third. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Combine the minced parsley, tarragon, oregano, minced thyme, lemon zest and shallots with some salt and pepper in a small bowl. The salt will help to draw the moisture and flavor from the mixture. Add the olive oil to form a paste. Divide the mixture between the turkeys and spread all around both sides of each turkey. Season again with salt and pepper. Halve 3 of the lemons. Stuff the cavity of the whole turkey with the lemon halves and parsley and thyme sprigs.
- Divide the carrots, onions and fennel between 2 roasting pans or baking sheets. Arrange the spatchcocked turkey skin-side up on the vegetables in one pan. Put the whole turkey breast-side up on the vegetables in the second pan. Divide the stock and wine between the 2 pans.
- Put the whole turkey on the bottom oven rack and the spatchcocked turkey on the top rack and roast, basting every 30 minutes with the pan juices and adding a little more liquid to the bottom of the pans as needed to prevent burning. Keep an eye on the turkeys: when the spatchcocked turkey is nicely browned, remove the roasting pan and carefully move the top oven rack to the middle position (see Cook's Note). Move the whole turkey to the middle rack and the spatchcocked turkey to the bottom rack and continue to roast until the thickest part of the thighs registers 155 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 2 hours total (10 minutes per pound) for a 12-pound spatchcocked turkey and 2 hours 25 minutes to 3 hours total (12 to 15 minutes per pound) for a 12-pound whole turkey. Allow the turkeys to rest for at least 1 hour before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Make the stuffing: In a large bowl, mix together the cornbread, egg, chicken stock, onion, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper. Spread on half of the prepared baking and let rest for 10 minutes while you prepare the turkey and yams.
- Make the turkey: In a small bowl, mix together the butter, parsley, and thyme. Rub the butter mixture under the skin of the turkey breast until completely coated. Season the skin with the salt and pepper, then place on top of the stuffing.
- Make the yams: Place the yams on a quarter of the baking sheet and, using a fork, puncture all over.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the green bean casserole: In a medium bowl, mix together the green beans and cream of mushroom soup.
- After 30 minutes of bake time, remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the green bean mixture to the remaining quarter of the pan. Top with the fried onions.
- Return the pan to the oven and cook until the internal temperature of the turkey breast reaches 165°F (75°C), 30-35 minutes.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and slice an opening lengthwise down each yam. Add ½ tablespoon butter, ½ tablespoon pecan pieces, and ½ tablespoon marshmallows to each opening. Tent the tray with a piece of foil and let sit for about 10 minutes while the turkey rests and the marshmallows melt from the residual heat.
- Carve the turkey, then serve with gravy and the side dishes.
- Enjoy!
