Note

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a microwave or oven to maintain moisture.

For a vegetarian option, substitute the turkey breast with a firm tofu block or seitan, adjusting cooking time accordingly.

If you donâÂÂt have dry sherry, you can use dry white wine or apple cider vinegar as a substitute.

Let the turkey rest for 5-10 minutes after baking before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.
