Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Turkey

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Rinse the turkey breast under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Turkey

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the turkey breast, ensuring it is evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Add Aromatics

    Place the fresh rosemary sprigs inside the cavity of the turkey breast. Squeeze the juice of the lemon over the turkey and place the lemon halves inside the cavity as well.

  4. 4

    Roast the Turkey

    Place the turkey breast in a roasting pan and roast in the preheated oven for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

  5. 5

    Rest and Serve

    Remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes before carving. Serve with your favorite sides.
