TURKEY BREAST STUFFED WITH ITALIAN SAUSAGE & MARSALA-STEEPED CRANBERRIES RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:
- Put the cranberries and Marsala into a small saucepan and bring to a boil, then take off the heat and leave to one side. Put the oil into a large frying pan or similar heavy pan, and fry the shallots for a minute or so, then add the spices and chopped sage, turning them in the soft shallots. Squeeze the sausage meat out of its skins, add to the pan, and break it up using a wooden fork and spatula for ease, turning it in the hot pan until it loses its pinkness. This will take about 5 minutes. Take the frying pan off the heat and turn the contents into a large bowl, mixing in the steeped cranberries and any Marsala clinging to them, and leave to cool. You can cover with plastic wrap and put in the refrigerator for up to 2 days at this stage. When you are ready to stuff the turkey breast, take the bowl of sausage meat out of the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Uncover the bowl of sausage meat, add the eggs, Parmesan, and bread crumbs andI use my hands for this mix well. Lay the butterflied turkey joint out in front of you. It really does look like a butterfly, though admittedly a fleshy one. Spread the stuffing out first in the slight cavity in the center of the butterfly and then outward onto the wings though not going right up to the edge (or it will squidge out when cooking) but as evenly as possible over the whole joint. Carefully, in one swift but steady movement, fold one wing over the other to close the joint, and then sit the turkey in a large roasting pan, breast bone (or where the breast bone would be) on top as it would look were it the whole bird, with the pointier bit farthest away from you. Thread 2 skewers through the base, i.e. the widest part that is nearer you to keep it closed, and smear it all over with the duck or goose fat. Roast the turkey breast for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, then check it is cooked with a turkey or meat thermometer. When cooked, it should read 165°F in the center. (If you're leaving it to rest, as you should, or to cool, you could take it out at 160°F-it will retain heat and continue to cook for a short while once out of the oven.) Flex your muscles, then lift out onto a cutting board, and leave to rest for at least 20 minutes. Or leave to get cold if you are eating it as part of a cook-ahead buffet. Cut through the whole joint in wide slices right across; they will need to be quite thick, at least 1/2 inch, maybe 1 inch, to keep the stuffing intact within the slice. As you place it on table or sideboard, dot around it the condiments of your choice: I revert to Christmas in Italy here by putting a lusciously extravagant pot or two of Italian mostarda di Cremona on the table alongside: this is a hot and sweet preserve of mustardy candied fruits that gleam beautifully and taste both festive and fabulous.

CRANBERRY STUFFED TURKEY BREASTS
I made these once for a holiday dinner party, and they were such a hit that I started making them for Thanksgiving instead of a whole turkey.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare stuffing mix according to package directions. Set aside to cool.
- With a sharp knife, butterfly breasts open to lay flat. Place each breast between two sheets of waxed paper, and flatten with a mallet. Spread the prepared stuffing to within 1/4 inch of the edge of each breast. Sprinkle each one with chopped pecans and dried cranberries, reserving some of the cranberries for garnish. Roll up tightly in a jellyroll style, starting with the long end. Tuck in ends, and tie in sections with string, about 4 sections around the middle and one running the length of the roll to secure the ends.
- Heat olive oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully brown rolls on all sides.
- Place skillet in oven, uncovered. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature is at 170 degrees F (78 degrees C) when taken with a meat thermometer. Do not let these get overly dry.
- Allow rolls to set for 15 minutes before removing string, and slicing into 1/2 to 3/4 inch circles. Leave one roll whole, and slice the other for presentation. Stuffing will be spiraled into meat. Present on your prettiest platter on a bed of curly lettuce, and garnish by sprinkling with the remaining 1/2 cup pecan halves and the reserved dried cranberries.

Steps:
- Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon water and spinach; cover and cook 5 minutes or until spinach wilts, stirring occasionally. Place spinach mixture in a colander, pressing until barely moist. Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons chopped shallots, 2 tablespoons water, and garlic; cover and cook 3 minutes or until moisture evaporates. Spoon shallot mixture into a medium bowl. Add the spinach, feta, breadcrumbs, oregano, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, and egg white. Cut horizontally through center of breast, cutting to, but not through, other side using a sharp knife; open flat as you would a book. Place breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap; pound to an even 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Discard plastic wrap. Spread spinach mixture over turkey, leaving a 1-inch border. Roll up breast, jelly-roll fashion, starting with one short side. Secure at 2-inch intervals with twine. Rub 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper evenly over turkey. Preheat oven to 325°F. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the turkey; cook 5 minutes, browning on all sides. Remove turkey from pan. Add 2 tablespoons shallots to pan; sauté 30 seconds. Stir in wine, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Add turkey and broth to pan; bring to a boil. Cover and bake at 325° for 40 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in thickest portion of turkey registers 170°. Remove turkey from pan; keep warm. Place pan on stovetop over high heat. Combine cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water, stirring with a whisk. Add cornstarch mixture to pan; bring to a boil. Cook 1 minute or until slightly thick, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add butter, stirring with a whisk. Remove and discard twine from turkey. Cut turkey into 8 slices. Serve sauce with the turkey. Garnish with oregano sprigs, if desired.

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.
STUFFED TURKEY BREAST WITH CRANBERRY GLAZE
Haven't tried this -- posted in response to a request -- but it sounds fabulous and fairly easy too. I clipped this out of the Food section in the Toronto Star newspaper.
