Red Pepper and Spinach Stuffed Turkey are on the menu and as usual it’ a simple recipe to make and you’re going to enjoy it. You can use chicken breast but I used turkey breast. You will need to flatten the turkey or chicken breast (whichever one you’re using) if you can’t do it let your butcher flatten it for you. Let’s get started.

Recipe Notes

Note for Gravy:

If you want to make gravy, in the same pan you used for roasting the turkey, place it on a medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of oil or butter.
Add 2 tablespoons of flour (depending on how much liquid you have in the pan, the liquid should be the equal part of the flour) and stir until the flour dissolve add chicken broth about 1/2-3/4 cup of chicken broth to the mixture and boil until it reduced add salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle over the stuffed turkey.
