1 1/2 tsp extra virgin olive oIl
4 cups baby spinach
2 lbs turkey breast
1/2 cup goat cheese (crumbled)
Sea Salt & Black Pepper to taste
1/2 cup vegetable broth
2 cups frozen cranberries (diced)
1 navel orange
1 tbsp raw honey
Twine
--> Preheat the oven to 425ºF (218ºC).
--> Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add baby spinach and saute until wilted. Once wilted, remove from heat.
--> Use a meat mallet to pound the turkey breasts into a thin layer. This will make it easier to roll.
--> Place a large piece of parchment paper across your counter. Cut 8 long strings of twine and lay them in pairs across the parchment paper, about 1 inch apart. Place each turkey breast across two pieces of twine. Season the turkey with sea salt and black pepper.
--> Spread your goat cheese across each turkey breast leaving a 1/2 inch border all the way around. Add the wilted spinach. Roll up each turkey breast and tie the twine around it into a tight knot. Trim the excess twine and discard. Season with salt and pepper.
--> Add the broth to a baking dish to cover the bottom. Set the rolled turkey breasts inside. Cook in the oven for 35 to 45 minutes or until cooked through.
--> Meanwhile, start the cranberry sauce. Combine cranberries, orange juice and honey in a sauce pan. Place over medium heat and stir occasionally for about 15 minutes or the sauce thickens. Reduce heat to low and cover until ready to serve. Add a few splashes of water if the sauce becomes too thick.
--> Remove the turkey and let it rest for 10 minutes. Remove the twine. Slice into 2 inch thick medallions. Drizzle with cranberry sauce. Enjoy!
