Cooking steps

Boil the Sweet Potato
1
  • Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a large pot of salted water.
  • Chop the sweet potato into 2cm chunks (peeling optional).
  • When boiling, add the sweet potato to the water and cook until fork tender, 15-20 mins.
  • Meanwhile, roughly chop the parsley.
  • Drain the cooked sweet potato in a colander and return to the pot, off the heat. Stir through a knob of butter along with the parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
Coat the Turkey
2
  • Arrange the turkey on a lined baking tray. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw turkey and its packaging. Turkey is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Spread the pesto evenly over the tops of the turkey.
  • Season the breadcrumbs with salt and pepper.
  • Spoon equal amounts of the breadcrumbs onto each breast. Press down firmly with the back of the spoon to ensure it adheres.
Cook the Turkey
3
  • Place the turkey on the top shelf of the oven.
  • Bake until the breadcrumbs are golden and the turkey is cooked through, 10-15 mins. 
  • Meanwhile, trim and quarter the radish.
  • Just before serving, toss the radish and salad leaves with a drizzle of oil.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Finish and Serve
4
  • Divide the crumbed turkey between plates, adding a dollop of mayo on top.
  • Serve the radish salad and parsley butter sweet potato alongside.
  • Finish the salad with a drizzle of balsamic glaze.
