Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 - 7 lbs bone-in turkey breast (thawed)
1 onion (halved)
3 garlic cloves (smashed)
1 carrot (cut in half)
2 celery stalks (cut in half)
4 cups chicken broth
salt and pepper
1 tbsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
1 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped)
1 tbsp fresh sage
4 tbsp butter (bonus points for herb butter)
Reserved cooking liquid from the turkey breast
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp flour

Steps:

  • Place the chicken broth in the pressure cooker and add a steamer, open fully over top. Place the onion, garlic, carrot, and celery to the steamer.
  • Mix the rosemary and parsley together in a bowl.
  • Pat the turkey dry with paper towels.
  • Season well with salt and pepper (don't forget to season the cavity).
  • Carefully use your fingers to pull up the skin from the top of the turkey breast and rub with the chopped herbs.
  • Slide 4 pats of butter (about 1 tablespoon each) under the skin and a few of the sage leaves.
  • Place the turkey breast in the pressure cooker.
  • Seal the lid and set your pressure cooker to 30 minutes.
  • Allow the pressure to cook the turkey and release the steam naturally.
  • Carefully remove the turkey breast from the pressure cooker when the pressure has released.
  • Place the turkey on a baking sheet and put under the broiler for a few minutes to brown the skin.
  • Remove and wrap well with foil to rest.
  • Remove the steamer with the cooked vegetables and discard.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the flour and allow to cook for one minute.
  • Ladle about a cup of the cooking liquid into the saucepan, whisking, to create a roux.
  • Add a little more liquid if needed. Once the roux has come together, set your pressure cooker to simmer and add the roux.
  • Allow to cook until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. (If your pressure cooker does not have this option, continue to whisk the cooking liquid into the flour and butter mix and cook until thickened).
  • Serve the turkey breast sliced with the gravy on the side.

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 3lb Butterball Turkey Breast Roast
1 tbsp poultry seasoning
2 tbsp butter (cut into pats)
2 lemon slices (optional)
1 sprig rosemary
1 onion (quartered)
3 stalks chopped celery
2 cups chicken broth
4 garlic cloves
2 McCormick Turkey Gravy packets

Steps:

  • Remove the packaging from the turkey then run it under warm water until you can separate and remove the gravy packet from the turkey breast. You can leave the inner netting on while cooking. Rub the outside of the chicken with the poultry seasoning and set aside.
  • Place the celery, onion, garlic cloves, and chicken broth in the bottom of the pressure cooker pot. Place the trivet in and set the turkey breast roast on top of it. Place the butter pats, lemon slices and rosemary on top of the turkey breast.
  • Close the lid to the pressure cooker and set the valve to sealing. Then use poultry mode and adjust the time to 55 minutes and let cook (see note section for altitude adjustments.) When cooking is done, natural release for an additional 20 minutes. Then open the lid and check the temperature which should be 170˚F throughout.
  • Remove the roast and strain the vegetables, reserving the broth and pour it back into the pressure cooker pot and add both gravy mixes. Turn the pot on to sauté and whisk continuously until it comes to a boil and then about 3-5 additional minutes until it thickens. Turn the pressure cooker off and remove the gravy from the heat.
  • Cut off the netting and serve warm with as little or as much gravy as you want! Enjoy!
