Ingredients
  

  • 1 boneless turkey breast 2–3 lbs
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ½ cup crumbled goat cheese or feta cheese
  • ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts optional
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • Butcher’s twine for tying the roulade

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Butterfly the turkey breast by slicing it horizontally without cutting all the way through. Open it like a book and pound it gently to an even thickness.
  • In a skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Sauté garlic until fragrant, then add spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.
  • In a bowl, mix cooked spinach, cranberries, cheese, and nuts.
  • Spread the filling evenly over the turkey breast. Roll it tightly, starting from one end, and secure with butcher’s twine at 1-2 inch intervals.
  • Rub the roulade with the remaining olive oil, then sprinkle thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper evenly.
  • Place on a roasting rack in a baking dish and roast for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice into medallions and serve.
