Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the turkey breast on a baking sheet and rub it with olive oil. Season with salt and black pepper.
Roast the turkey in the preheated oven for 60-75 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Once cooked, let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing into thick pieces.
While the turkey is roasting, prepare the mashed potatoes if they are not already made. Set aside.
Prepare the stuffing by combining stuffing mix and chicken broth in a large pot. Cook over medium heat until the broth is absorbed and the stuffing is fluffy. Set aside.
Warm the gravy in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
To build your Hot Roasted Turkey Mountain, start by placing a generous scoop of mashed potatoes on each plate.
Layer with a scoop of stuffing on top of the mashed potatoes.
Arrange slices of roasted turkey over the stuffing layer.
Generously drizzle warm gravy over the entire mountain.
Add a spoonful of cranberry sauce on top for sweetness and a pop of color.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
