Ingredients
  

  • 4 lb boneless turkey breast
  • 10 - 12 slices HORMEL® BLACK LABEL® Bacon

Stuffing

  • 6 cups  bread cubes
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 1 onion  - chopped
  • 2 celery ribs - chopped
  • 1 - 2 tbsp fresh sage  - chopped
  • 1 tsp poultry seasoning
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 1/2 - 2 cups  chicken broth

Instructions
 

STUFFING

  • Melt the butter in a skillet and cook the onion and celery for 6 - 8 minutes, until softened.
  • Place bread cubes in a large bowl and add the cooked veggies, all seasonings and then add the chicken broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring to moisten the bread crumbs. Add enough broth so that the dressing is moist, but not overly soggy.
  • Taste and season with additional salt and pepper as desired.

TURKEY

  • Preheat oven to 400 F.
  • Place the turkey breast on a cutting board and butterfly the breast. Cover with plastic wrap or parchment and pound to about 1/4-inch thickness.
  • Lay out the bacon slices in a row, allowing a slight overlap. Use enough bacon to allow for about an inch overhang at the top and bottom of the turkey.
  • Place the prepared turkey over the bacon and add the stuffing down the length of the breast then roll the breast to cover the stuffing, tucking the ends.
  • Pull the bacon around the stuffed turkey and tie with with cooking twine at 1-inch intervals
  • Place the turkey, seam side down, into a roasting pan.
  • Roast until internal temperature of the turkey breast is 165 degrees F, about 1 hour or 12 to 15 minutes per pound.
  • Let rest for 10 minutes, cut the twice, then slice and serve.
