Mediterranean Stuffed Turkey Breast

So, this beautiful main course show-stopper looks complicated, but it is actually incredibly easy (but that can be our secret!). Using one of our favourite zero Points® foods – skinless turkey breast – this roulade (fancy word for roll) is a great centrepiece to your next family dinner. We’ve stuffed it with high-impact flavourful ingredients so you can get away with using less, but still get the same bang for your SmartPoints-buck.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound(s) raw skinless turkey breast, butterflied
  • 2 Tbsp sun-dried tomatoes (without oil), minced
  • 8 large olive(s), pitted and chopped
  • 2 Tbsp fresh oregano, chopped
  • 1 clove(s), medium garlic clove(s), minced
  • 6 spear(s), medium uncooked asparagus
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp crumbled goat cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butterfly the turkey breasts to create two even filets and place between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat tenderizer, pound until the turkey is approximately 1 cm thick.
  2. Mix together the sun-dried tomatoes, olives, oregano, and garlic.
  3. Layer 1 Tbsp goat cheese, 3 asparagus spears, and half of the sun-dried tomato mixture down the middle of each breast.
  4. Roll the turkey around the filling and secure with three ties of twine. Repeat with remaining breast and filling.
  5. Set a large frying pan over medium high heat. Add the oil and sear the roulades, starting with the seam-side down. Brown all sides (about 5 minutes) then place the roulades in the oven and roast for 20 minutes or until an internal temperature of 165°F is reached. Let rest for five minutes, and then slice into medallions.
