Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the turkey in a baking pan and rub the oil over the turkey. Sprinkle with the dried herbs and 1 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Pour 2 cups of the broth around the turkey and bake until it is just cooked through, about 30 minutes. Let the turkey cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer the turkey to a cutting board. Using a large, sharp knife, cut the turkey diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Return the turkey slices to the baking pan and coat with the pan juices.
• In the bowl of a food processor, blend the tuna, lemon juice, capers, anchovy paste, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of broth until creamy, about 1 minute. Transfer the tuna mixture to a medium bowl, and stir in the mayonnaise. Season the tuna sauce with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• To cook the Turkey, put everything into a large pan and snuggle the turkey steaks amongst it.
• Bring to a simmer and cook for 40 minutes, turning once or twice over a low heat. Allow to cool completely in the broth and refrigerate until ready to assemble (still in the broth) This can be done the day before.
• No more than 2 hours before you want to serve it, take the turkey out of the broth and pat dry on paper towels, strain the broth through a sieve into a bowl and discard the vegetables and herbs.
• Arrange the dry turkey onto a serving platter in a neat slightly overlapping fashion.
• Make the sauce (can also be done the day before) by putting everything in the blender or food processor apart from the broth. Blend thoroughly and little by little add the broth until the sauce is the consistency of thick pouring cream.
• Neatly pour over the turkey and garnish with the olives capers and parsley and refrigerate until ready to serve for no more than 2 hours.

Steps:

• For Turkey:
• Make slits in turkey with tip of small sharp knife; put 1 anchovy piece and 1 garlic sliver into each slit. Place turkey in large saucepan or Dutch oven. Add all remaining ingredients. Add water to cover. Bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover partially and simmer until meat thermometer inserted in center of turkey registers 140°F, about 1 hour. Turn off heat and let turkey cool in cooking liquid.
• For Sauce:
• Puree tuna, anchovies, lemon juice and 3 tablespoons capers in processor until very smooth, scraping down sides of work bowl occasionally. With machine running, gradually mix in oil and blend until creamy. Add mayonnaise and just blend using on/off turns (do not overmix).
• Remove turkey from broth (reserve broth for another use). Cut off string and pull off turkey skin. Slice turkey into thin rounds. Coat platter with some of sauce. Top with single layer of turkey slices. Spread turkey with more sauce. Sprinkle generously with parsley and capers. Continue layering turkey, sauce, parsley and capers until all of turkey is used. Surround with lemon slices. Cover with plastic; chill turkey and any remaining sauce separately for at least 8 hours. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead.) Let turkey stand at room temperature 1 hour. Serve, passing any remaining sauce separately.

Steps:

• Make filling and prepare roast:
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
• Stir together tapenade, zest, garlic, and rosemary in a small bowl.
• Arrange turkey, skin side up, on a work surface with narrower, pointed end nearest you. Determine which long side of the breast is thickest, then, starting from that side and holding knife parallel to work surface, cut breast horizontally almost in half, stopping 1 inch from other side. Open breast like a book. Season breast with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Spread tapenade mixture evenly on breast with the back of a spoon, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides. Starting from the side without skin, roll up turkey sideways, ending seam side down (skin will be on outside of rolled breast). Tie rolled turkey breast crosswise at 1-inch intervals with kitchen string. Pat roast dry, then sprinkle outside all over with remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Cook roast:
• Heat olive oil (2 tablespoons) in a 12-inch heavy skillet until hot but not smoking, then brown turkey, turning occasionally, 8 minutes total. Transfer to a 13- by 9-inch roasting pan and add wine to pan. Roast turkey, uncovered, until a thermometer inserted diagonally 2 inches into thickest part registers 160°F, about 1 hour.
• Transfer roast to a platter to cool, reserving pan juices. Cool roast completely, uncovered, then chill, tightly wrapped in plastic wrap, 2 hours.
• Make sauce:
• Purée tuna (including oil), 1/2 cup olive oil, water, lemon juice, anchovy paste, and 4 tablespoons of reserved pan juices in a blender, stopping and scraping down sides as necessary, until very smooth. Transfer to a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill until cold, about 1 hour.
• Assemble turkey tonnato:
• Cut chilled turkey roast into 1/4-inch-thick slices, discarding strings, then top with chilled sauce. Bring turkey and sauce to room temperature, about 1 hour. Serve with lemon wedges, capers, and parsley.

Steps:

• Put turkey breast in a 6- to 8-quart pasta pot and add broth and enough water to cover turkey by 1 inch. Remove turkey and bring liquid to a boil. Season with salt and return turkey to pot, then poach at a bare simmer, uncovered, skimming any froth, until an instant-read thermometer inserted 2 inches diagonally into thickest part of breast (do not touch bone) registers 155°F, 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Cool turkey in broth 30 minutes (internal temperature will rise to 170°F).
• Purée tuna, anchovies, mayonnaise, oil, lemon juice, and water in a blender until very smooth.
• Transfer turkey to a cutting board, then bring remaining poaching liquid to a boil.
• Add half of beans and cook, uncovered, until crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a colander and refresh under cold water. Cook remaining beans and refresh in same way. Add potatoes to broth in pot and simmer until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain potatoes, reserving broth for another use.
• Thinly slice turkey breast on the diagonal. Arrange beans on a platter and top with potatoes, then drizzle vegetables with some tonnato sauce. Top with turkey slices and more tonnato sauce. Sprinkle dish with capers, olives, and basil. Serve remaining sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Cut the turkey breast across the grain into thin slices, each about one-eighth-inch thick.
• Put the drained tuna and capers into the container of a food processor or electric blender and blend. Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, anchovies and broth. Blend thoroughly.
• Spoon about a quarter cup of the sauce into a serving dish and smooth it over. Arrange a quarter of the turkey slices, slightly overlapping, over the sauce. Spoon another layer of sauce on top. Add another layer of turkey slices and more sauce. Continue making layers until all the turkey slices are used.
• Finish with a layer of sauce. Garnish the top symmetrically with lemon slices, black olives and parsley. Serve any additional sauce on the side. Serve with tomato slices or a mixed green salad on the side.
