Turkey Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Turkey

    Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F). Pat the turkey breast dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, rosemary, and thyme to create a seasoning paste.

  2. 2

    Season and Stuff

    Rub the seasoning paste all over the turkey breast. Squeeze the lemon over the turkey and place the lemon halves inside the cavity of the turkey for added flavor.

  3. 3

    Roast the Turkey

    Place the turkey breast in a roasting pan and cover it loosely with foil. Roast in the preheated oven for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 74°C (165°F). Remove the foil in the last 30 minutes to allow the skin to crisp up.

  4. 4

    Rest and Serve

    Once done, remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing. Serve with your choice of two sides.
