Time 1h55m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 dried ancho chiles, stemmed and seeded
2 dried pasilla chile peppers, stemmed and seeded
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons dried minced onion
1 ½ teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons brown sugar
2 limes, juiced
1 (5 pound) boneless turkey breast

Steps:

  • Blend ancho chiles, pasilla chiles, cumin, onion, salt, and pepper together using a spice or coffee grinder into a fine powder. Pour spice blend into a bowl and stir in brown sugar.
  • Squeeze lime juice over turkey and rub with spice blend. Let marinate for about 1 hour.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Reduce grill temperature to medium. Remove turkey from marinade, reserve any excess for basting. Sear turkey breast on the preheated grill, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • Turn 1/2 of the grill burners off. Roast breast on the grill for 15 to 20 minutes. Turn turkey over and baste with reserved marinade; cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 15 to 20 minutes more. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
