  • Total Time: 14 hours 20 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 quarts water
  • 3/4 cup maple syrup
  • 3/4 cup Kosher salt
  • 1 fresh bunch of thyme
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 2 garlic cloves crushed
  • 2 Tbsp. black peppercorns
  • 1 large turkey breast 3-4 lbs.
  • 1/2 onion chopped
  • 1 Tbsp. butter
  • 2 slices stale bread or the ends off the loaf
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 cup pistachios
  • 1 tsp. poultry seasoning plus more for the outside
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup white wine or chicken broth
  • Olive oil
  • Twine

Instructions

  1. Combine water, maple syrup, Kosher salt, thyme, bay leaves, garlic, and black peppercorns in a large stock pot to create the brine. Boil until the salt dissolves, then allow it to cool completely.
  2. Once the brine is cooled, submerge the turkey in it and refrigerate overnight.
  3. Remove the turkey from the brine and pat it dry. Sauté the chopped onion in butter until translucent, then let it cool.
  4. In a bowl, mix the torn bread pieces, cranberries, pistachios, poultry seasoning, salt, pepper, and white wine or broth. Add the cooled onion and blend well.
  5. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the turkey skin-side down on a cutting board, cover with plastic wrap, and flatten it evenly using a kitchen mallet.
  6. Spread the stuffing along one edge of the turkey and roll it tightly. Secure with twine in 3-4 places and place in a roasting pan. Rub the outside with olive oil and season with poultry seasoning.
  7. Roast for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Ensure the brine is completely cooled before adding the turkey to prevent cooking the meat.
Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness and size of the turkey breast for perfect doneness.
