Time 1h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

¼ cup butter, softened
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon salt-free garlic and herb seasoning blend (such as Mrs. Dash®)
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 (3 pound) turkey breast with skin
1 teaspoon minced shallot
1 tablespoon butter
1 splash dry white wine
1 cup chicken stock
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons half-and-half

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Mix 1/4 cup butter, garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, garlic and herb seasoning, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Place turkey breast with skin side up into a roasting pan. Loosen skin with your fingers; brush half the butter mixture over the turkey breast and underneath the skin. Reserve remaining butter mixture. Tent turkey breast loosely with aluminum foil.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour; baste turkey breast with remaining butter mixture. Return to oven and roast until the juices run clear and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast, not touching bone, reads 165 degrees F (65 degrees C), about 30 more minutes. Let turkey breast rest 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
  • While turkey is resting, transfer pan drippings to a skillet. Skim off excess grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon in skillet. Place skillet over low heat; cook and stir shallot in turkey grease until opaque, about 5 minutes. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in skillet with shallot and whisk in white wine, scraping any browned bits of food from skillet. Whisk in chicken stock and flour until smooth. Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened. For a creamier, lighter gravy, whisk in half-and-half.

We love turkey, but sometimes cooking the entire bird is overwhelming. I like serving turkey breast for a quick and healthy meal. The key to this juicy turkey breast is letting it marinate for at least 4-6 hours and it turns out flavorful and delicious every time! You can also use chicken breasts instead of turkey.

Tips:

  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the turkey breast its delicious flavor, so make sure to use a flavorful one. The recipe in the article uses a mixture of olive oil, herbs, spices, and citrus, but you can use any marinade you like.
  • Marinate the turkey breast for at least 4 hours, or overnight: The longer you marinate the turkey breast, the more flavorful it will be. If you're short on time, you can marinate it for as little as 30 minutes, but the longer you marinate it, the better.
  • Cook the turkey breast to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit: This is the safe internal temperature for cooked turkey. You can check the internal temperature using a meat thermometer.
  • Let the turkey breast rest before carving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the turkey breast, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Marinated turkey breast roast is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With the right marinade and cooking method, you can create a juicy, flavorful turkey breast that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make main course, give marinated turkey breast roast a try.
