Baked Turkey Breast With A Quinces-White Wine Sauce
Late autumn is about quinces. A beautiful and full of flavour fruit and a very simple yet tasty autumn recipe. All you need is about 15 minutes for preparing, a baking tray, an oven and of course the “best you can get” ingredients :)
The Steps
Preheat the oven at 215C with ventilation.
Peel all the vegetables except the garlic.
Cut the garlic head transversally in 2 pieces, so every clove gets cut in 2 pieces.
Cut the quinces and the peeled onions in in 2-3 pieces each. You can let the other vegetables uncut.
Place the turkey breast in the centre of a medium sized baking tray ( I used a 36 cm baking tray with an approximate depth of 6 cm.), then arrange the vegetables and the quinces around.
Add 250 ml of wine, then complete with water until the level of liquid reaches 3 cm.
Sprinkle the salt, the coriander and the pepper over the turkey breast.
Pour also the olive directly over the turkey breast. You’ll get a crispier exterior and a more golden look.
