With all the herbs in my garden, I needed to make a meal that used at least some of the overgrown parsley. So, I decided to do a Turkey Breast London broil with Parsley Rub on a cast iron skillet. I just purchased a cast iron skillet that doesn't have a handle so I can use it on the grill as well as in the oven. Something similar to this one from Amazon.
Ingredients:
1 lb Turkey Breast boneless London Broil cut
2 cups fresh parsley
4 cloves of garlic
½ cup grated Romano cheese
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
(I served with roasted russet potatoes and broccoli florets. The recipe is at the end of the post.)
Note: If you can't find a turkey breast London Broil cut, you can use chicken or turkey breasts. Be sure to adjust how long the cook time will be.
Tools:
Cast iron skillet
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Add cleaned parsley with little stems in a food processor. Add garlic, Romano cheese, salt and pepper to the food processor. Turn it on and add olive oil until it becomes a paste.
- Add to both sides of the turkey.
- Heat up the cast iron skillet.
- Add the turkey breast with tongs. Sear on both sides for 3 minutes each side.
- Put in the oven for 20 minutes or until cooked. Turn over halfway through the cooking process.
- Pull out and let sit for 10 minutes, covered with foil.
I served it with roasted potatoes and broccoli florets. It's easy to do. I added the potatoes and large pieces of broccoli florets to a one-gallon bag and then added olive oil to coat and added salt, pepper, paprika, and granulated garlic to the bag. Close the bag and shook it well to coat. Added to a nonstick pan and placed it in the 400-degree oven then started the turkey. This gave the potatoes 10 more minutes to cook in the pan. =)
Here's the finished product. Let me know if you try it. I would love to hear from you.

This sounds good, and easy too. I don't care for Romano cheese, but I'm sure Parmesan would work too.
I like the peppery taste of Romano but yes, parmesan would work too. =)
This looks great and so healthy. Win-win. I love turkey. So new ways of serving it are great.
I don't eat turkey, but my husband does, so I passed this along to him. I'd eat all the side veggies! Sounds yummy. We have a banner crop of basil this year and no parsley--might try a pesto version!
That's a great idea, Rose. You can easily substitute basil. I was thinking of that but my basil plant had died. =(
