  • 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)

Method

  • 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.
