Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9 x 13 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.
- Prepare the bread cubes: Spread bread cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake until crisp and golden, about 10-12 minutes; set aside.
- Make the stuffing: In a large Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add garlic, onion, and celery. Cook until tender. Stir in wine, cranberries, parsley, sage, and thyme. Remove from heat and mix in bread, cornbread stuffing, pecans, salt, pepper, and chicken stock. Spread mixture into baking dish.
- Prepare the turkey: In a small bowl, combine butter, garlic, thyme, and lemon zest. Loosen the skin from the turkey breast and spread the butter mixture underneath. Season with salt and pepper. Place the turkey on top of the stuffing.
- Cook: Bake until the turkey is cooked through, about 40-45 minutes, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
