Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 325.
Prepare stuffing mix according to package directions. Let cool.
Butterfly the turkey breasts (you know - slice them open horizontally so they open like a book!) Place them between two pieces of plastic wrap and whack with a small heavy pot or mallet to flatten them as much as you can. Be careful not to mangle the meat or tear a hole in it.
Sprinkle the breasts with salt and pepper.
Spread each breast with stuffing, then sprinkle generously with pecans and cranberries.
Roll each one tightly like a jelly roll, tuck in the ends and tie up with twine.
Heat olive oil in large skillet. Brown the turkey rolls all over, turning carefully.
Place the turkey rolls (either in the skillet or in a roasting pan) in the oven.
Cook for about 1 hour, or until internal temperature is 170.
Let stand 15 minutes before slicing into 1/2 or 3/4 inch pieces.
Serve with gravy and extra pecans and cranberries.
