MAKE-AHEAD THANKSGIVING TURKEY

Roast, basting from time to time and checking for doneness every 15 minutes after 1 hour of cooking, until the meat reaches 165 degrees F, about 1 1/2 hours. Let rest, covered in foil, for 45 minutes.
• Carve the breasts and thighs into slices (keep the legs whole), then arrange on a fresh baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate.
• On the day of serving: let the turkey come to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Drizzle the chicken broth over the turkey, cover again with foil and roast until it registers 165 degrees F, about 1 hour.

TURKEY ROLL UPS

Steps:

• Pour the contents of both boxes of stuffing into a large bowl, add the butter in small knobs, the soup, celery, onion, water chestnuts, garlic powder, celery seed and the hot water. Mix well. If you prefer a drier dressing you can decrease the water by 3 Tablespoons.
• Lay out one slice of turkey, place about 1/4 cup of the stuffing mix into the center of the turkey and roll it up.
• Place the roll into a 9x13 baking dish lightly sprayed with cooking spray, seam side down.
• Do this with all the Turkey slices. (You should have eight rolls).
• You will have leftover stuffing, that you can scatter around the pan.
• Mix the Turkey gravy using the directions on the package and pour over the rolls.
• Bake in a 350 Degree oven for 30-40 minute or until the gravy in the center of the pan is hot and bubbling.
• If you are making this for a large crowd you can cut the rolls in half, you can also double this recipe very easily.

TURKEY-AND-CHEESE ROLL-UP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lavishly grease a cookie sheet or (preferably) cover it with parchment paper.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large saucepan. Add the optional onion and cook for about 5 minutes, until it's translucent. Add the rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes, or until the rice had absorbed all the broth. Cook to lukewarm, then season to taste with pepper and stir in the optional parsley.
• Meanwhile, melt the rest of the butter in a small saucepan. Put 1 filo sheet in front of you and brush it lavishly with melted butter. Repeat this brushing process, using plenty of butter, stacking the sheets, until all the sheets have been used.
• Carefully spread the cooled rice over the filo sheets, leaving a 2-inch border all around. Top the rice with the turkey and the turkey with the cheeses.
• Slide your hand under a short end of the filo stack and lift up approximately 3 inches of it. Fold this over once, as if you were making the first fold in a business letter. Fold the long sides over to seal the filling. Continue folding until the strudel is all rolled up.
• Place the strudel on the cookie sheet seam side down. With a sharp knife, make several slashes in the top to let out the steam. Bale for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the strudel is well browned and crisp-looking. (Some of the filling may leak out onto the pan, but don't worry about that.) Let the strudel stand for 5 minutes before you slice it with a sharp knife.

MAKE-AHEAD ROASTED TURKEY BREAST

Steps:

• Bring 1 quart water, 3/4 cup salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, bay leaves and lemon zest to a boil in an extra-large pot (large enough to hold the turkey breast). Reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook for 10 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat, and add 4 quarts water. Let cool to room temperature.
• Add the turkey breast to the pot (use a plate to help submerge it if needed), cover and refrigerate for at least 12 hours and up to 1 day.
• Remove the turkey breast from the pot, and discard the brine. Blot the breast dry all over with paper towels.
• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees F. Pulse the butter, parsley, sage, thyme, paprika and cayenne in a food processor to combine. Rub half the herbed butter under and over the skin of the turkey breast; roll the rest into a log, and freeze. Place the breast on a rack set in a roasting pan, and roast, rotating as needed to ensure even browning, until the deepest part of the breast registers an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours.
• Let the turkey breast cool completely. Wrap it well with plastic wrap and foil, label and date, and freeze, deep in the freezer, for up to 2 weeks.
• Two days before you plan to serve it, put the turkey breast in a baking dish and transfer it to the refrigerator to thaw.
• To serve, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the breast from the bone, and slice. Shingle the slices onto a large baking dish, pour in the stock and dot the turkey with slices of the frozen herbed butter. Wrap the dish tightly with foil, and reheat in the oven until the turkey is hot and the butter is melted, 40 to 50 minutes. Transfer the turkey to a platter, and drizzle with some of the pan liquid.
