Categories     main-dish

Time 9h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

One 2- to 3-pound bone-in, skin-on split turkey breast
BBQ Chip Dust, recipe follows
8 ounces parsnips, cut into 2-inch chunks
8 ounces sweet potatoes, cut into 2-inch chunks
8 ounces baby potatoes
2 tablespoons avocado oil
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons dry ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon granulated garlic powder
1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Coat the entire turkey breast in about half of the BBQ Chip Dust. Place on a sheet pan fitted with a rack and let it dry brine in the fridge, uncovered, for 8 hours and up to overnight.
  • Install an air fryer searing plate in an air fryer and set the temperature to 400 degrees F for 35 minutes for the plate to preheat.
  • In a large bowl, toss the parsnips, sweet potatoes and baby potatoes with the avocado oil. Sprinkle with the remaining BBQ Chip Dust and toss until coated.
  • Remove the searing plate and place the turkey breast skin-side down on one side. Arrange the vegetables on the other side. Cook until the turkey skin is golden brown, about 5 minutes (see Cook's Note). Flip the turkey breast and continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 165 degrees F and the root vegetables are tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Let the turkey rest for 10 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the rib bone (if there is one) from the turkey breast and carve. Serve with the root vegetables.
  • Combine the brown sugar, salt, chile powder, garlic powder, black pepper, onion powder and cayenne in a small bowl and mix until blended. Use immediately or transfer to an airtight resealable container.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, chopped
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch ground allspice
2/3 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 medium sweet potatoes, chopped into 1/4-inch cubes (about 3 cups)
3 large carrots, peeled and sliced into thin half-moons (about 2 cups)
3 large parsnips, peeled and sliced into thin half-moons (about 2 cups)
2 stalks celery, finely diced
One 14-ounce bag frozen pearl onions, thawed and drained
Two 17.3-ounce packages puff pastry, thawed (4 sheets)
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a half sheet pan (18-by-13-inches) with cooking spray.
  • Put the butter, thyme, cinnamon and allspice in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook until the butter melts, about 1 minute. Whisk in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is a sandy consistency, about 1 minute. Pour in the vegetable broth, whisking constantly, until smooth. Stir in 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper and bring to a boil, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently until thickened and the flour flavor is gone, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put the sweet potatoes, carrots, parsnips, celery, pearl onions, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper on the prepared half sheet pan and toss to combine. Set aside.
  • Stack the 4 puff pastry sheets on top of each other on a lightly floured surface. Roll out the puff pastry to a 20-by-15-inch rectangle. Pour the gravy on top of the vegetables on the sheet pan and toss together to coat. Place the puff pastry evenly over the filling so there is about a 1-inch overhang on the edges. Trim the overhang with kitchen shears, making sure that the filling stays completely covered. Using the shears, make 12 small X marks all over the pastry; these slits will help steam escape. Beat the egg with a splash of water in a small bowl. Brush the pastry with the egg wash and bake until deep golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let the pot pie cool for 10 minutes, then slice and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right size sheet pan: Make sure the sheet pan is large enough to accommodate the turkey and root vegetables in a single layer. A 13x18 inch sheet pan is a good option.
  • Use a variety of root vegetables: This will add flavor and color to the dish. Some good options include carrots, potatoes, parsnips, turnips, and sweet potatoes.
  • Season the turkey and vegetables well: Season the turkey with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Season the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Roast the turkey and vegetables together: This will save time and ensure that the turkey and vegetables are cooked evenly.
  • Baste the turkey occasionally: This will help to keep it moist. You can use a mixture of olive oil and melted butter.
  • Let the turkey rest before carving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful turkey.

Conclusion:

This sheet pan dinner is a great way to enjoy a delicious and healthy meal. The turkey is cooked to perfection and the root vegetables are roasted until they are tender and flavorful. This dish is also easy to make and is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give this turkey and root veggie sheet pan dinner a try!
