Sometimes you don’t want to bother with roasting a whole turkey but really want an authentic holiday meal. Boneless, skinless turkey breast to the rescue! It poaches in under 30 minutes and is a great stand-in for the real deal. We serve it with a fresh cranberry sauce that comes together in minutes. If the gremolata is too tart for your taste, add extra chopped apple or pear. Roughly chopped seedless red or green grapes would also be tasty.
