Serves: 2
Cooking Time
45 minutes
What You’ll Need:
- 1 large turkey breast (approx. 550g)
For the stuffing
- Lurpak® Cooking Mist
- 2 shallots, peeled and diced
- 1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
- Sprig of rosemary, leaves removed and roughly chopped
- 20g dried cranberries
- 200g sausage meat
- 20g walnuts, chopped
- Grated zest of a small orange
- 20g breadcrumbs
- Pinch of ground nutmeg
- Salt and ground black pepper
What To Do:
- Preheat oven to 200°c/Gas 6.
- Prepare the turkey breast by slicing it lengthways across the middle to create a pocket for the stuffing, be careful not to go right the way through. Place turkey on a plate and set aside for later.
- To prepare the stuffing, spray Lurpak® Cooking Mist into a saucepan and add the shallots, garlic and rosemary, and sauté until softened (approx. 5 minutes). The high burning temperature of Lurpak® Cooking Mist protects the shallots, garlic and rosemary from catching and allows them to caramelise over the heat for extra flavour. Set aside and allow to cool in the saucepan.
- Add the cranberries, sausage meat, chopped walnuts, orange zest, breadcrumbs and nutmeg to the sautéed ingredients and season well.
- Open up the pocket made in the turkey breast and fill with the prepared stuffing. Use butchers string to secure the stuffing within the turkey breast. Tie in approximately four places to ensure the filling doesn’t spill out during cooking.
- Spray with Lurpak® Cooking Mist and place in the oven. Roast for 45 minutes basting with the Lurpak® Cooking Mist half way through cooking for a perfectly crisp, golden finish.
- Cover the turkey with foil and allow to stand for 10 minutes before slicing to serve.
