Stuffed Turkey Fillet

Preparing a whole turkey stems from the “Thanksgiving” tradition that is slowly starting to fade in America. Not everyone has an oven large enough for such a huge bird. That is why this more practical recipe is recommended.

Preparation

1. Start by preheating the roasting pan. Do this with an empty pan at a low temperature.
2. Set the oven to 120 degrees and preheat it as well.
3. Chop the nuts into pieces and put them in the mixing bowl together with the dried cranberries.
4. Add the cream cheese and the honey and mix well.
5. Now for the turkey: cut the fillet so that you can stuff it. The most important thing is to make sure that the stuffing (almost) cannot fall out when you tie the fillet.
6. Once you have cut open the turkey fillet, spread the stuffing in the part that you can tie back together. Now tie the fillet together well so that it retains its shape during cooking.
7. Use the breakfast bacon to make a mat so that you can easily place it over the turkey later.
8. Put the oil in the pan and brown the turkey. Then let it rest for 10 minutes.
9. Remove the strings and wrap the bacon around it.
10. Now put the turkey back in the pan and place it in the oven. Cook the turkey for one hour at 120 degrees so that the stuffing does not leak out and the meat remains nice and tender.
11. The bacon fat ensures that the turkey retains its flavors and juices and seasons the meat naturally with salt.
12. When the turkey is cooked, remove the pan from the oven and let the meat rest for 10 minutes before carving.
