Lemon Turkey with Couscous Stuffing

A zesty roast turkey breast paired with herby couscous stuffing. Bright, fresh, and Mediterranean-inspired for a lighter holiday or weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

  1. 1 (4 pound) bone-in turkey breast
  2. 2 teaspoons olive oil
  3. 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1 garlic clove, minced
  4. 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel 1/4 teaspoon salt
  5. 1/8 teaspoon pepper stuffing:
  6. 1 1/2 cups boiling water
  7. 1 cup uncooked couscous 1 medium carrot, shredded 1/2 cup raisins
  8. 1/3 cup chicken broth
  9. 1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Directions

  1. Carefully loosen turkey skin, leaving it attached at the back. Combine the oil, lemon juice, garlic, lemon peel, salt and pepper; spread under turkey skin. Place turkey to one side in a shallow roasting pan coated with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. For stuffing, in a bowl, pour boiling water over couscous. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes or until water is absorbed. Add the remaining ingredients; toss to combine. Spoon stuffing into other side of pan, shaping into a 8-in. x 5-in. x 2-in. mound. Cover pan and bake at 325 degrees F for 45 minutes.
  3. Uncover turkey; leave stuffing covered. Bake 40-50 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 170 degrees F. Cover turkey with foil and let stand for 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with stuffing.
