Description
Make slow cooker turkey breast with stuffing by simmering a whole turkey breast in a crock pot with cranberry bread dressing for a one-pot main dish that looks after itself.
Ingredients
•
2 tablespoons butter
•
1 1/2 large yellow onions, diced
•
4 large celery ribs, diced - or more to taste
•
1 (8 ounce) package dry bread stuffing mix with seasoning packet
•
1 (16 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce
•
1/2 cup butter, melted
•
1/2 cup chicken broth
•
1/2 teaspoon salt
•
1 (7 pound) bone-in turkey breast with pop-up timer
•
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions
1
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onions and celery in hot butter until onions are translucent, about 8 minutes; remove from heat.
2
Place a plastic slow cooker liner into a 6-quart slow cooker. Place dry bread stuffing into the liner bag and sprinkle contents of seasoning packet over bread. Stir cooked onions and celery, cranberry sauce, 1/2 cup melted butter, chicken broth, and 1/2 teaspoon salt into dressing mix, taking care not to pierce the bag.
3
Rinse turkey breast and pat dry with paper towels; season turkey breast with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Push dressing mixture to the edge of the cooker and lay turkey breast into the slow cooker with the pop-up timer facing upward.
4
Cook on High until the pop-up timer pops, 4 to 4 1/2 hours.
5
Transfer turkey breast to a cutting board and let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Transfer dressing to a serving bowl and serve alongside turkey.
