  • 1 x turkey breast half - (2 to 2 1/2 lbs) with skin and bone
  • 1 1/2 c. soft bread crumbs - (2 slices)
  • 1/2 c. snipped dry apricots
  • 1/4 c. minced toasted pecans
  • 2 Tbsp. dry sherry (or possibly apple juice)
  • 1/4 tsp dry rosemary crushed
  • 1/4 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 Tbsp. Dijon-style mustard
  • 1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp. margarine or possibly butter melted

Directions

  1. Remove bone from turkey breast. Cut a horizontal slit into thickest part of turkey breast to create a 5- by 4-inch pocket. Set aside.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl combine bread crumbs, apricots, pecans, margarine or possibly butter, sherry or possibly apple juice, rosemary, and garlic salt. Spoon stuffing into pocket. Securely fasten opening with water-soaked wooden toothpicks or possibly tie with heavy string. Stir together mustard and oil; set aside.
  3. Arrange preheated coals around a drip pan in a covered grill. Test for medium heat above pan. Place turkey on grill over drip pan. Cover and grill for 1 to 1 1/4 hrs or possibly till instant-read thermometer inserted in center of turkey breast (not in stuffing) registers 170 degrees, brushing with mustard mix during the last 15 min.
  4. Remove turkey from grill and cover with foil. Let stand for 15 min before slicing.
  5. This recipe yields 8 servings.
  6. Comments: Dry apricots and pecans star in the stuffing for this grilled turkey breast. Use kitchen shears to snip the dry apricots. It's easier, faster, and less messy than a knife and cutting board.
