Also cooked a turkey breast, not being up for the extravagance of a whole bird. Brined the proper degree and cooked with a meat thermometer, go me. Alas, tried using store-made bacon sage and chorizo stuffing with it, which had to go around the bird, and which turned out to be incredibly fatty and greasy. Have mixed it with cooked rice and will probably add apples and apricots and something else to absorb the grease, like squash, but doubt it will ever make a palatable dish.
