Turkey in honey-mustard sauce is a refined dish of European cuisine that combines tender poultry meat with a fragrant and rich marinade. Honey gives the dish natural sweetness and a caramelized crust, while grainy mustard adds spiciness and pleasant texture. Vinegar and vegetable oil provide a balance of flavors, making the meat especially juicy. This dish is perfect for a festive dinner or a cozy family evening and can be served with baked vegetables or a light salad. Thanks to prolonged marination, the meat absorbs all flavor nuances, turning into a true gastronomic delight. Baking in foil preserves the turkey's juiciness, while the final coating of marinade gives the dish an appetizing shine and rich aroma. A wonderful choice for those who appreciate simplicity in preparation and harmony of flavors.
1
Wash the meat. Poke it in several places with a knife (this helps the meat absorb the marinade better), but do not cut it.
- Turkey fillet: 1.5 kg
2
Mix honey, mustard, vinegar, oil, and salt in a bowl.
- Honey: 150 g
- Grainy mustard: 100 g
- Vinegar: 2 tablespoons
- Vegetable oil: 2 tablespoons
- Salt: pinch
3
Place the meat in a bowl - it should be almost completely covered with marinade. Leave for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight (it's better to turn the meat several times - this way it absorbs the marinade better).

Place the meat in a dish, pour the marinade into a bowl, leaving a little at the bottom of the dish. Cover the dish with foil - this will make the meat juicier.
5
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees - roast the turkey at this temperature for 10 minutes. Then reduce the temperature to 150-170 degrees. Roast for another 50 minutes. Then open the foil, lightly baste the turkey with marinade from the bowl, and leave it for another 15 minutes.
