Ingredients

  • Turkey breast - bone out skin on (flattened with a mallet and unrolled)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

  6. Cut the end off the Brussel sprouts and cut them in half long ways.
  7. Place all the veggies in a large roasting pan with drilled olive oil (Affiliate Link). Add Italian herb seasoning, salt, pepper, and a pinch of smoked paprika.
  8. Remove the wax paper and add the flattened turkey to the top of the acorn squash slices in the pan.
  9. Season with Italian herb seasoning, salt, pepper, and paprika.
  10. Cover with aluminum foil and place in oven for 45 minutes.
  11. Remove from oven and check the meat. It should be 160 degrees or 155 degrees and let sit for 15 -20 minutes to get up to temperature.
  12. Slice the turkey into thin slices and transfer the vegetables to a bowl. If you don't want to eat the acorn skin, cut it off and discard.
