Although this Herb Roasted Boneless Turkey Breast is one of the easiest recipes I use, it is also one of the most delicious and makes an impressive presentation. What a great idea for holidays, dinner parties, or just casual dinners. Just two ingredients and some fresh herbs is all that is required.
I am so glad I finally posted this recipe as it is truly one of my favorites. The prep time is just a few minutes and while your turkey is cooking, your house will smell amazing!
I love pairing this with cranberry sauce, gravy or a peach glaze sauce (recipe coming soon).
It is important to let the turkey breast rest for about ten minutes once out of the oven before slicing.
If at all possible, use fresh herbs as they make a difference. I happened to find a potted plant at the grocery store with rosemary, thyme and sage. Perfect! I just clipped what I needed. Anything left over can be used for simmering spices or other recipes.
Turkey Breast with Peach Glaze – recipe coming soon!
Try pairing with this Cranberry Orange Sauce.
- 2-3 pound boneless skin on, turkey breast (Mine was 2.3 pounds)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- tablespoons a few fresh herbs (Sage Rosemary and Thyme). I used 2 large sage leaves, several thyme and rosemary bunches to equal about 3 tablespoons cut, chopped herbs.
- 3/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
-
Wash and dry turkey breast and place on roasting pan.
-
In a bowl, add herbs, about 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper and mix together.
-
Using hands or brush, coat entire turkey breast, all over, and under skin if possible.
-
Bake for 2-2 1/2 hours until internal temperature reaches 170 degrees.
-
Notes: Can be made ahead of time.
