Directions

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat 1 Tbsp oil in large braising pan on MED-HIGH. Add bacon; cook 4-6 min. Add mirepoix; cook, stirring frequently, 3-5 min.

  • Step 2

    Add butter and stock; bring to simmer. Add apples, pecans, and stuffing; stir well to combine.

  • Step 3

    Remove pan from heat. Drizzle turkey with remaining oil; season with salt and pepper. Arrange turkey on top of stuffing, tucking sides under.

  • Step 4

    Place pan in oven; cook, uncovered, 1 hr.

  • Step 5

    Remove pan from oven. Transfer turkey to separate plate; set aside. Stir stuffing well; return turkey to stuffing. Cook 30-45 min until turkey is golden brown and internal temp reaches 185 degrees (check by inserting thermometer halfway into thickest part of turkey without touching bone.)
