Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Turkey breast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cups Fresh spinach
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh thyme, chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 10 pieces Toothpicks or kitchen twine
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lay the turkey breast flat on a clean surface. Use a sharp knife to butterfly the turkey breast, ensuring you don't cut all the way through.
Cover the turkey with plastic wrap and use a meat mallet to pound it to an even thickness, about 1/2 inch.
In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the fresh spinach and sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a bowl, combine cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, thyme, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, lemon zest, and the cooked spinach. Mix until well combined.
Spread the herb and cheese mixture evenly over the turkey breast, leaving a border around the edges.
Starting from a short end, carefully roll the turkey breast up tightly, enclosing the filling. Secure the roll with toothpicks or kitchen twine at 1-inch intervals.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in an oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the turkey roll and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 6-8 minutes.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Carefully remove the toothpicks or twine, and slice the turkey roll into rounds. Serve warm.
