Ideal for a small Thanksgiving gathering. Leftover turkey and vegetables can be refrigerated for up to 4 days. 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

2 cloves garlic, finely minced or grated

1½ teaspoons chopped fresh thyme 1½ teaspoons chopped fresh

rosemary

1½ teaspoons chopped fresh sage ¾ teaspoon kosher salt

½ teaspoon freshly ground black

pepper

3 pounds boneless turkey breast

(about ½ breast)

1 pound medium Brussels sprouts,

trimmed and halved

1 pound delicata squash, halved lengthwise, seeded, then cut crosswise into ¼-inch thick slices 1 tablespoon maple syrup Cranberry sauce, for serving

(optional)

Instructions: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees with the rack in the middle.

In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon oil, mustard, garlic, thyme, rosemary, sage, ¼ teaspoon salt and the pepper until combined. Place the turkey in the center of the large rimmed baking sheet and rub the herb mixture all over it and under the skin. Roast for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with 1 tablespoon oil and ¼ teaspoon salt. Add them to sheet pan with the turkey and return to the oven for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, in another medium bowl, toss the squash with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, ¼ teaspoon salt and the maple syrup. Remove the pan from the oven, stir the Brussels sprouts and move them to one side of the turkey. Add the squash to the pan on the other side and return the pan to the oven.

Roast for about 25 minutes, until the turkey reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees, then transfer the turkey to a carving board and let it rest 10 minutes. If the vegetables are tender and nicely browned, transfer them to a large serving platter; otherwise, return the baking sheet to the oven while the turkey is resting. (If one vegetable is done before the other, transfer it to a plate and cover to keep warm.)

Slice the turkey and serve with the roasted vegetables and cranberry sauce, if using, alongside.
