Peel 6 potatoes and chop them into small pieces.

Season the potatoes with about 1 teaspoon of salt and add about 1 tablespoon of butter.

Secure the potatoes inside a parchment paper pouch to steam them as they roast.

Take a 2 to 2.5 lb turkey breast and season it with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.

Mix 1/3 cup of unsalted butter with fresh thyme, parsley, sage, and rosemary.

Spread the herb butter all over the top of the turkey breast.

Place the turkey breast in the oven at 400°F for about 20 minutes.

Prep your vegetables, using brussels sprouts and carrots, and season them with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Toss the vegetables until they're coated with the seasoning.

After 20 minutes, pull the turkey breast and potatoes out of the oven and place the vegetables on the tray alongside them.

Roast again for another 20 minutes, making sure to test the turkey's doneness with an instant read thermometer to ensure it reaches 165°F.

Rest the turkey and vegetables while removing the potatoes from the parchment paper pouch.

Mash or rice the potatoes in a bowl, adding 1/4 cup of unsalted butter, 3/4 cup of warm milk, and 1/2 cup of sour cream for creaminess.

Add black pepper and garlic powder to the mashed potatoes if desired.

For gravy, add the pan drippings to a pot along with 1/2 cup of white wine.

Make a slurry with 2 teaspoons of flour and 1/4 cup of water, and add that to the gravy along with 1 cup of chicken stock.
