Ingredients
1-1 1/4 | lbs. | boneless turkey breast with skin, aka turkey London broil |
Stuffing | ||
1 | Tbsp. | extra virgin olive oil |
1/2 | cup | finely chopped onion |
1 | cup | plus 2 tbsp no-salt-added chicken or vegetable stock (divided use) |
2 | cups | chopped mushrooms |
2 | garlic cloves, finely minced | |

1 | tsp. | grated orange zest |

Directions
- In sauté pan combine olive oil, onion, and stock. Cook, stirring over low heat, until onion is tender. This will take about 5 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring until tender and moisture has evaporated, approximately 3-5 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook about 1 minute. Stir in spinach and cook, stirring until wilted, about 1 minute.
- Add sun-dried tomatoes, orange zest, basil, and a grinding of fresh black pepper. Remove from heat. Cool.
- Stuff mixture under the skin of turkey breast. Place in roasting pan and pour 1 cup additional stock or wine over turkey breast. Refrigerate until ready to roast.
- Roast in a 375ºF convection oven (25-30 minutes) or a 400ºF standard oven (40-45 minutes) until internal temperature reaches 165ºF. Can be basted with pan juices during roasting. Remove skin before serving.
Cook's tips: Slice like a London broil so that you get layers of turkey, stuffing, and golden brown skin.
