Stuffed Turkey Breasts - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 turkey breast halves, boned
    5 Tbsp. soy sauce
    2 Tbsp. dry sherry
    1/2 tsp. sugar
    8 slices day old bread, shredded
    1 c. finely chopped celery
    2/3 c. sliced almonds, toasted
    1/4 c. chopped green onions and tops
    3 Tbsp. butter, melted
Preparation
    Remove fillets from breast halves.
    Starting with thinner edge, cut each breast in half lengthwise horizontally, almost all the way through.
    Open and pound to 1/4-inch.
    Combine 3 tablespoons soy sauce, sherry and sugar in a large shallow dish. Add turkey, skin side down; marinate 30 minutes.
    Combine bread, celery, almonds and onions.
    Blend butter with remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce; toss with bread mixture until moist and crumbly.
    Remove turkey; reserve marinade.
    Spread half of the stuffing mixture on half of each breast half, leaving a narrow border along outside edges; pack stuffing down slightly.
    Close breasts and secure with toothpicks; brush with reserved marinade. Place on rack in baking pan.
    Roast at 325\u00b0 for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until tender, brushing with reserved marinade every 30 minutes.
    Remove to serving platter; let stand 15 minutes.
    Remove toothpicks and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch thick slices.
