Description

This holiday-inspired dish features a bone-in turkey breast glazed with a spiced maple syrup reduction. It is served alongside a hearty stuffing made with white and shiitake mushrooms, apple, and dried herbs. The combination of sweet glaze and savory, aromatic stuffing creates a balanced and comforting meal.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place turkey breast on a rack in a roasting pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  3. Roast for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F (175°C) and roast for another 30 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, combine maple syrup, vanilla, nutmeg, and allspice in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes until liquid is reduced by about one-fourth.
  6. After the first 45 minutes of roasting, brush turkey with glaze.
  7. Roast for 15 minutes more and brush with glaze.
  8. Roast for 10 minutes more and glaze again.
  9. Roast for 5 minutes, brush with remaining glaze, and continue roasting for 5 to 10 minutes until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 180°F (82°C).
  10. Meanwhile, spray a 3-quart baking dish with no-stick cooking spray.
  11. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  12. Add onions, celery, carrot, and garlic, and sauté for 7 to 8 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.
  13. Stir in apples and cook for 3 minutes.
  14. Add white and shiitake mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon salt; sauté for 6 minutes until mushrooms begin to give off their liquid and soften.
  15. Stir in sherry, sage, and thyme; cook for 2 to 3 minutes until liquid has evaporated.
  16. Remove from heat.
  17. Combine vegetable mixture, bread cubes, broth, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  18. Toss well to combine and transfer to baking dish.
  19. Cover dish with foil.
  20. After turkey has roasted for 1 hour, place stuffing in oven and bake for 15 minutes.
  21. Remove foil and bake for 15 to 20 minutes until stuffing is heated through and crisp on top.
