Roast Turkey Breast With Apple-Cornbread Stuffing Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

Nonstick cooking spray, as needed
1 medium onion, chopped
1 1/4 cups canned reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 package prepared cornbread stuffing mix - (8 oz)
1 Granny Smith apple, diced
3/4 tsp dried sage, divided
3/4 tsp dried thyme leaves, divided
1 1/2 lb boneless turkey breast
1 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
1 cup canned whole berry cranberry sauce, (optional)

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Coat 1 1/2-quart casserole with cooking spray; set aside.

Coat large saucepan with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir 5 minutes. Add broth; bring to a simmer. Stir in stuffing mix, apple, 1/4 teaspoon sage and 1/4 teaspoon thyme. Transfer mixture to prepared casserole; set aside.

Coat a shallow roasting pan with cooking spray. Place turkey breast in pan, skin-side up; coat with cooking spray. Mix paprika, remaining 1/2 teaspoon sage, 1/2 teaspoon thyme and pepper in small bowl; sprinkle over turkey. Spray lightly with cooking spray.

Place turkey in preheated oven; roast 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Place stuffing in oven alongside turkey; continue to roast 35 minutes or until internal temperature of turkey reaches 170 degrees when tested with meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast.

Transfer turkey to cutting board; cover with foil and let stand 10 to 15 minutes before carving. Internal temperature will rise 5 degrees to 10 degrees during stand time.

Remove stuffing from oven; cover to keep warm. Carve turkey into thin slices; serve with stuffing and cranberry sauce, if desired.

“That's something I've noticed about food: whenever there's a crisis if you can get people to eating normally things get better.”
