Stuffed Turkey Breast
Serves: 6
Ingredients
To make Stuffed Turkey Breast, you'll need:
- 2 tbsp. olive oil
- 2 medium onions
- 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- Salt and pepper to season
- 6 x 200g turkey breasts (opt for a thicker breast as you are going to fillet it)
- 180g cheddar cheese, grated
- 100g gruyere cheese, grated
- 12 slices Parma ham
- Steamed broccoli and cauliflower
- Juice of a lemon
Method
- Pour a tablespoon of olive oil into a saucepan and place over a medium heat until the oil warms up.
- Sauté the onions for around 4 minutes, add the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Season the mixture with salt and pepper, then set it aside to cool down.
- Partly fillet the turkey breast.
- You should open up the turkey enough to make a small pocket, then stuff the cheddar and gruyere inside that pocket.
- Season the turkey breasts with salt and pepper, and wrap two slices of Parma ham around each breast.
- Drizzle the turkey breasts with the rest of the olive oil and bake at 180°c or Gas Mark 4 for 25 minutes, ensuring that the ham is crispy and the chicken is fully cooked.
- To test if the turkey is cooked, stick a skewer in it: when it comes out, the juice should be clear and not be at all pink.
- Serve along with steamed broccoli and cauliflower, dressed with some lemon juice.
