This recipe was a disaster! The turkey breast was dry and overcooked, and the garlic and lemon did nothing to improve the flavor. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly and my turkey breast turned out perfectly! The meat was moist and flavorful, and the skin was golden brown and crispy. This is my new go-to recipe for roasted turkey breast.

I found this recipe to be a bit underwhelming. The turkey was a bit dry and the flavors were not as pronounced as I had hoped. I think I will try a different recipe next time.
