2 large stalks celery, finely diced

3 large cloves garlic, finely chopped

8 ounces mild Italian pork sausage, casings removed

1/2 cup white wine

1 tablespoon rosemary, finely chopped

9 cups store-bought seasoned or unseasoned stuffing cubes

1-3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth

3 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, chopped

1 whole (in halves) 5-6 lb. skin-on turkey breast, boned and butterflied

Kosher salt and pepper

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oi

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
