Rustic Italian Stuffed Turkey Breast

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°F).

In a frying pan, sauté bacon in oil until crisp.

Add butter, fennel, onion and garlic and cook until lightly browned.

Add stock and then transfer to a mixing bowl. Add bread cubes, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper and mix until stock is absorbed.

Make a cut in the top of the turkey breast from one end to the other, not cutting all of the way through. Create a large pocket in the turkey breast by cutting a slit further on each side.

Place the stuffing mixture into the pocket.

Place the breast on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover the stuffing area with a greased piece of foil.

Bake for 40 minutes, remove foil and continue baking for another 20 minutes or until it reaches a minimum internal temperature of 170°F (80°C).

Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
