Turkey with Pecan-Cherry Stuffing


I made this meal on Sunday and it was sooooo yummy! It has great flavor and adds a fun twist to Turkey and is cooked in the crockpot! 

1 fresh or frozen boneless turkey breast (about 3-4 lbs.)
2 cups cooked rice
1/3 cup chopped pecans
1/3 cup dried cherries or cranberries 
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/4 cup peach, apricot, or plum preserves
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Directions:
1. Thaw turkey breast if frozen. Remove skin and discard. Cut slices three-fourths of the way through turkey at 1-inch intervals
2. Stir together rice, pecans, cherries, and poultry seasoning in large bowl. Stuff rice mixture between slices. If necessary, skewer turkey lengthwise to hold it together.
3. Place turkey in crockpot; cook for 5-6 hours or until turkey registers 170 degrees on meat thermometer.
4. Stir together preserves and worcestershire sauce. spoon over turkey. cover; let stand for 5 minutes. Enjoy!
