Sweet potatoes and cranberries add a distinctive flavor to this baked turkey dinner!

By Pillsbury Kitchens

Updated Jul 23, 2010

Ingredients

1 (2 to 3-lb.) boneless turkey breast
3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled, cubed (5 cups)
1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries
6 green onions, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3/4 cup orange juice
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps

1

Heat oven to 350°F. Place turkey breast in ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish. Arrange sweet potatoes, cranberries and onions around turkey. Pour orange juice over top. Sprinkle with marjoram and salt. Cover with foil.
2

Bake at 350°F. for 1 hour. Uncover; brush with melted butter. Bake an additional 30 minutes or until turkey is fork-tender and juices run clear, spooning pan juices over turkey and vegetables once during baking. Serve turkey and vegetables with pan juices.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

tip 1
Look for sweetened dried cranberries in the produce, bulk or dried fruit section of the grocery store.
tip 2
Sweet potatoes are high in vitamins A and C, and low in fat. One-half cup of sweet potatoes is comparable to one medium carrot as an excellent source of vitamin A.
tip 3
Garnish a platter of sliced turkey, sweet potatoes and cranberries with thin slices of orange and fresh marjoram sprigs. Have guests ladle the pan juices from a decorative bowl.
