Ingredients:
2  boneless, skinless turkey breast halves, each about 1 1/2 pounds 1  teaspoon salt Freshly ground black pepper 1/2  pound Brie or Camembert cheese, rind on, cut into 8 slices 20  fresh basil leaves 3  ounces prosciutto, thinly sliced Instructions

1.Preheat oven to 350F.

2.Make a large pocket-like slit in each turkey breast half. Unfold like a book. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place cheese and basil evenly on half of each breast. Fold over filling. Loosely wrap each breast with half the prosciutto—about 3 slices for each. Place turk in roasting pan.

3.Place in oven and roast 35 to 45 minutes. Turkey is done when a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 160F. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes; the temperature will increase at least another 5F. Slice and serve hot or at room temperature. Be sure to capture all the pan juices to spoon over sliced turkey
