Turkey Breast

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Turkey

    Remove the turkey breast from packaging and pat dry with paper towels.

  3. 3

    Make the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and lemon juice to create a marinade.

  4. 4

    Season the Turkey

    Rub the marinade all over the turkey breast, ensuring that it's evenly coated. You can also insert some marinade under the skin for extra flavor.

Roasting

  1. 5

    Place in Roasting Pan

    Place the seasoned turkey breast in a roasting pan, breast side up.

  2. 6

    Roast the Turkey

    Roast in the preheated oven for approximately 3 to 3.5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

  3. 7

    Baste the Turkey

    Every hour, baste the turkey with the juices from the pan to keep it moist.

  4. 8

    Rest the Turkey

    Once cooked, remove the turkey from the oven and cover it loosely with aluminum foil. Let it rest for at least 20-30 minutes before slicing.
