ASSEMBLY

Slice turkey breast into 4-ounce portions. Butterfly each portion. Cover each with plastic wrap and using a mallet, flatten each piece to an even thickness in a rectangular shape.

Spread 1/3 cup stuffing over the flattened turkey breast. Roll up tightly, encasing the stuffing on both ends. Tie roulade with oven-proof kitchen twine.

Cover turkey roulade with some of the marinade and reserve the remaining marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 to 12 hours.

GRILL and OVEN-FINISH

Preheat grill and grill turkey breast until golden.

Transfer to an oven proof dish, spoon a bit of the reserved marinade on top.

Place in a preheated 400 degree F oven for about 10-15 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.

Remove twine. Slice each piece into three slices.

Serve with fresh Mango Chutney.
