Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 pound sweet potatoes, halved or quartered if large
  • 1 pound small parsnips, peeled and halved
  • 1 bulb fennel, thinly sliced, plus 2 tablespoons chopped fronds
  • 1 large red onion, cut into 8 wedges
  • 1/2 cup dried apricots
  • 2 to 3 sprigs rosemary, plus 1/2 teaspoon chopped rosemary leaves
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1 small clove garlic, minced
  • Grated zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 skin-on, bone-in turkey breast half (3 1/4 to 4 pounds)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Whisk 1 tablespoon olive oil, the honey and 2 tablespoons water in a bowl. Put the potatoes, parsnips, fennel slices, onion, dried apricots and rosemary sprigs in a roasting pan. Add 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper, drizzle with the honey mixture and toss. Roast until the vegetables soften, about 30 minutes, stirring once.

Meanwhile, mix the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the garlic, lemon zest and chopped rosemary in a small bowl. Rub the herb mixture under and over the turkey skin. Season with salt and pepper and bring the meat to room temperature.

Place the turkey on top of the vegetables in the pan; roast until the skin browns and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165 degrees F, 1 hour to 1 hour, 15 minutes. (Cover with foil if the skin is getting too dark.) Transfer the turkey to a cutting board and let rest 20 minutes.

Toss the roasted vegetables with the lemon juice and fennel fronds. Slice the turkey and serve with the vegetables.

    I did not make the turkey breast, I only use the vegetable recipe. I was looking for a veggie side dish and found this one, so my review will only reflect that. That is the reason for 3 stars. I think if i made the turey breast, this would be a 5 star rating. With that being said, there is not any left from last night's dinner. As simple as the vegetable recipe is, it is very tasty. I will make this again for Christmas dinner.

    This was just ok. Admittedly I only made the turkey and although the outside flavor was wonderful the inside was basically flavorless.
