Turkey Deboned And Rolled Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place a rack in a large roasting pan.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium (10-inch) saute pan 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 one minute only. Off the heat, add the sage and rosemary and set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, spread the turkey breast out on a cutting board, skin-side down. Sprinkle the meat with 4 teaspoons salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. When the onion mixture is cool, spread it evenly on the meat. Distribute the grated butter on top. Place one layer of prosciutto on top of the butter to cover the meat completely. Starting at the left side of the turkey breast, roll the meat up jelly-roll style to make a compact cylindrical roulade, ending with the seam side down and the skin side up. Tie the roulade with kitchen twine at 1 1/2- to 2-inch intervals as tightly as possible to ensure that it will roast evenly. Slip whole sage leaves underneath each tie of the twine down the center of the roulade.
• Place the turkey roulade, seam side down, on the prepared rack in the roasting pan. Pat the skin dry with paper towels, brush the skin all over with 2 tablespoons olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pour the wine and 1 cup of water in the roasting pan (not over the turkey) and roast for between 1 1/2 and 1 3/4 hours, until the skin is golden brown and the internal temperature is 150 degrees F. (This depends on how large the turkey breast is.) Remove from the oven, cover with foil, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Slice in 1/2-inch-thick slices and serve warm with the pan juices.

Steps:

• DEBONE TURKEY (prep time doesn't include deboning -- this depends on skill, on average, about 1 hour should do it):.
• Set turkey, breast side down, on a stable work surface with the tail facing towards you. With a sharp knife slice skin along backbone from neck to tail. Cut and pull flesh away from carcass.
• Cut flesh from shoulder blade near wing and remove bone. When you reach the wing joint, sever ball-and socket joint so they are separated from carcass but still attached to skin. Continue cutting breast meat away from bone up to the ridge of the breastbone. Turn the bird around and repeat on other side.
• The bird should now be butterflied, with carcass attached only at the sternum, and wings and drumsticks still with bones. Pull gently to separate breastbone and carcass, being careful not to tear up the meat beneath the sternum.
• Cut off wing tip and middle section, leaving largest wing bone. Holding outside of wing bone cut through tendons, and scrape meat from bone. Holding outside of wing bone cut through tendons and scrape meat from bone. Pull out bone using knife to free it.
• Holding inside end of leg bone, cut through tendons attaching the flesh to the bone. Use a knife to scrape meat from bone, pushing it away from end of bone. Cut bone free of skin. Cut out any sinews still remaining on leg. Repeat on other side, then push leg and wing skin side out.
• Butterfly breast so that meat completely covers the skin. Cover with plastic wrap and lightly pound meat until even.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
• PREPARE STUFFING: In a skillet, sauté onion, garlic, 1 tablespoons chopped rosemary, sage, and mustard on 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and translucent but not brown. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside to cool.
• Add the ground turkey and pork, breadcrumbs, eggs, cream, 1 ½ teaspoons salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Stir to combine.
• ROLL TURKEY: Lay turkey on a work surface, skin side down and season with 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons chopped rosemary.
• Place stuffing in the middle of the turkey. Roll turkey up closing neck and tail ends together (each slice of the roll will have both dark and white meat), securing with toothpicks or wooden skewers to hold in place. Tie every 2 inches with kitchen twine.
• Drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with remaining teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Tuck rosemary branches along the top of the roll under the twine. Place on roasting rack over a large pan (we usually have to make a "U" shape).
• ROAST TURKEY until thermometer registers 150 degrees, 2 to 2 ½ hours.
• Remove from oven, brush with maple syrup and return to oven for additional 20 minutes, or until thermometer reads 160-165 degrees. The maple syrup glaze will give the roll a wonderful rich color.
• REMOVE FROM OVEN and let rest for 10 minutes. Transfer to cutting board, remove twine and rosemary, and cut crosswise into ½ to 1-inch-thick slices.

Steps:

• Unroll turkey on a large cutting board. With a sharp knife, remove the wings (save for another use). Flatten turkey to 3/4-in. thickness. Cut between the turkey breast and thighs to separate into three sections. , In a large skillet, saute celery and onion in butter until tender. In a large bowl, combine bread and cornbread; add celery mixture, 1/2 teaspoon salt and sage. Stir in enough broth to moisten. , Spoon 2 cups stuffing over turkey breast to within 1 in. of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Tie with kitchen string at 1-1/2-in. intervals. Place on a rack in a large shallow roasting pan. , Spoon 1 cup stuffing over each thigh section to within 1 in. of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a short side. Tie with kitchen string; place on a rack in another shallow roasting pan. , Brush turkey with oil; sprinkle with pepper and remaining salt. Bake turkey breast at 325° for 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until a thermometer reads 170°; bake thighs for 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 hours or until a thermometer reads 180°. Stuffing should reach 165°. Let turkey stand for 15 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Bone the turkey: Place it on a work surface, breast side down. Slice skin along backbone from neck to tail. Cut and pull flesh and skin away from carcass. Cut flesh from saber-shaped bone near wing, and remove bone. Sever ball-and-socket wing joints so that they are separated from carcass but still attached to skin. Continue cutting breast meat away from bone up to the ridge of the breastbone. Turn turkey around, and repeat on other side. Pull gently to separate breastbone and carcass flesh (save carcass for homemade turkey stock). Cut off wing tip and middle section, leaving largest wing bone; save for stock. Holding outside of wing bone, cut through tendons; scrape meat from bone. Pull out bone, using knife to free it. Holding inside end of leg bone, cut through tendons attaching the flesh to the bone. Use knife to scrape meat from bone, pushing it away from end of bone. Cut bone free of skin. Cut out any sinews still remaining on leg. Repeat on other side, then push leg and wing skin side out. Butterfly breast so that meat completely covers skin. Cover with plastic wrap. Lightly pound meat until even.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the stuffing: Place a large skillet over medium heat; when it is hot, add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add onion, garlic, 1 tablespoon chopped rosemary, sage, and mustard. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and translucent but not brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl, and set aside to cool. Add the ground turkey and pork, breadcrumbs, eggs, cream, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the bowl. Stir to combine.
• Lay turkey breast on a work surface, skin side down, and season with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons chopped rosemary. Place stuffing in the middle of the turkey. Roll turkey up to form a long tube; use toothpicks or wooden skewers to hold in place. Tie every 2 inches with kitchen twine. Drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with remaining teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Tuck rosemary branches along the top of the roll under the twine. Place on roasting rack over a large pan.
• Roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 150 degrees, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Remove from oven. Brush with maple syrup. Return to oven, and roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees to 165 degrees, about 20 minutes more.
• Remove from oven, and let rest for 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, remove twine, and cut crosswise into 1/2- to 1-inch-thick slices. Place slices on a platter, and garnish with watercress. Serve with cranberry compote.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Place turkey, skin-side down, on a work surface and arrange meat with your hands into a flat, even surface. Season with salt and black pepper. Press stuffing all over the surface of the meat.
• Fold long edges of turkey around stuffing into the center of the bird and carefully turn turkey seam-side down. Tie the leg-end of the turkey with kitchen twine to cinch the turkey together. Repeat ties at 2-inch intervals along the length of the turkey, ending with a single tie along the length of the turkey. Season with salt and place in a large roasting pan.
• Roast turkey in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the turkey reads 155 degrees F (68 degrees C), about 1 1/2 hours. Transfer turkey to a platter; remove and discard twine. Let rest until internal temperature increases to 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 20 minutes.
• Place roasting pan over medium-high heat and stir cream into pan drippings. Cook and stir until sauce thickens and reduces, 3 to 7 minutes. Pour through a fine mesh sieve into a gravy boat or bowl. Slice turkey crosswise and top slices with gravy.
