- Roll the turkey breast, then use kitchen twine to truss the turkey breast and secure the stuffing. Place in a cast iron skillet, top with remaining softened butter, and season with Good Fella. Place a sprig of rosemary on top, add remaining 1 ½ cups of stock around the turkey, along with 1 bay leaf. Transfer to the oven.
- Cook the turkey for 1 ¼ to 1 ½ hours, until an internal temperature of 165 F is reached.
