1

Start by preparing the turkey breast, which should be quite thin.

2

In a frying pan, melt some butter and add chopped onion, celery, green peppers, and red peppers to create the Holy Trinity of soul food cooking.

3

Add Cajun seasoning and mixed herbs to the vegetables and sauté until softened.

4

Add stale multigrain bread to the pan and mix it in with the vegetables.

5

Pour in a little water from a kettle to moisten the mixture, as there is no vegetable stock available.

6

Blend the mixture down a bit to combine the vegetables and bread more thoroughly.

7

Let the mixture cool slightly before stuffing it into the turkey breast.

8

Spread cranberry sauce over the stuffing mixture inside the turkey breast.

9

Roll the turkey breast up to create a pinwheel effect with the stuffing inside.

10

Crack an egg into a bowl and add Cajun seasoning to it, then mix.

11

Coat the rolled turkey breast with panko breadcrumbs for a crunchy exterior.

12

Drizzle olive oil over the panko coating to help it crisp up during cooking.
