TURKEY BREAST ROULADE WITH GARLIC AND ROSEMARY
Ina Garten has been known as the Barefoot Contessa since she opened a gourmet store by that name in East Hampton, N.Y., in 1985. She shared this recipe from her book "Modern Comfort Food" with The Times for Thanksgiving in 2020, when many cooks were looking for alternatives to whole turkey. If you don't like fennel seeds, leave them out: Garlic, sage and rosemary give this roast the flavors of Italian porchetta, and it will still be fragrant, juicy and delicious without them.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium (10-inch) skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and fennel seeds and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the onion is tender. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Off the heat, stir in the chopped sage and the rosemary; set aside to cool.
- Set the turkey breast on a cutting board and open it up, skin side down. If necessary, pound the turkey to an even thickness of about 1 inch. Sprinkle the turkey with 4 teaspoons salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Once the onion mixture has cooled, spread it evenly on the meat. Grate the butter and sprinkle it on top. Arrange the prosciutto on top to totally cover the filling and meat.
- Starting at one long end of the turkey breast, roll the meat up jelly-roll style to make a compact cylindrical roulade, ending with the seam side down. Tie the roulade tightly with kitchen twine at 2 to 2 1/2-inch intervals to ensure that it will roast evenly. Slip the whole sage leaves under the twine down the center of the roulade.
- Place the roulade, seam side down, in a roasting pan and pat the skin dry with paper towels. Brush the skin with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pour the wine and 1 cup water into the roasting pan, surrounding the turkey with the liquids without pouring them directly over the roulade. Roast for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, until the skin is golden brown and the internal temperature is 150 degrees.
- Remove from the oven, cover the turkey with foil, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Remove the string, slice the roulade crosswise in 1/2-inch-thick slices, and serve warm with the pan juices.

ROSEMARY TURKEY BREAST
I season turkey with a blend of rosemary, garlic and paprika. Because I rub half of the mixture directly on the meat under the skin, I can remove the skin before serving and not lose any of the flavor. The result is an entree that's lower in fat, yet delicious-the perfect centerpiece for holiday meals. -Dorothy Pritchett, Wills Point, Texas

BRINED TURKEY BREAST WITH PEACH ROSEMARY GLAZE
This makes such delicious and moist turkey! I have changed the glaze before using dark cherries and cranberries instead of the peaches and that is scrumptious as well. I had to roast it longer to get to 165 degrees, about 40 minutes more, so you may want to plan on extra time. Prep time does not include brining time. This is from Sunny Anderson of Food Network.

Tips
- Choose a fresh turkey breast: Make sure the turkey breast is fresh and not frozen for the best flavor and texture.
- Dry the turkey breast thoroughly: Pat the turkey breast dry with paper towels before seasoning it. This will help the seasoning adhere to the meat and prevent the skin from becoming soggy.
- Season the turkey breast generously: Use a combination of herbs, spices, and salt and pepper to season the turkey breast. Be sure to rub the seasoning all over the meat, including under the skin.
- Roast the turkey breast in a hot oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) before roasting the turkey breast. This will help the skin crisp up and prevent the meat from drying out.
- Let the turkey breast rest before carving: Once the turkey breast is cooked through, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion
Rosemary turkey breast is a delicious and easy-to-make main course that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With its crispy skin, succulent meat, and fragrant rosemary flavor, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
