Turkey breast steaks are a cheap and easy dinner to cook but thats doesn't mean to say they need to be boring. They make a great midweek roast and at this time of year when the shops are full of large Turkeys and all the trimmings, it's easy to overlook them in favour of other meats. This is essentially an individual Christmas Dinner, but on a budget. If you haven't made a Christmas Dinner before and the thought of it is daunting or too expensive then try this recipe and hopefully it will give you the confidence to try it on a bigger joint next time. The principles are the same,just adjust the cooking times. This is also very easy to adapt to you and your families tastes. Don't like stuffing? Leave it out or use a bit of sausage meat instead. The same with any of the ingredients... even the turkey steaks can be swapped for chicken or pork. They can be prepped ahead of time and stored in the fridge overnight, ready to cook when you get home. Why not give this recipe a try and let us know how you got on in the comments below.
