Ingredients

  • 1 whole bone-in turkey breast about 6-7 pounds
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 4 cloves of garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh sage chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for brushing

Instructions

Preparation:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, mix the softened butter with minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, sage, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Turkey Preparation:

  • Pat the turkey breast dry with paper towels. Gently loosen the skin from the meat and spread a generous amount of the garlic herb butter under the skin, over the meat. Rub the outside of the turkey breast with olive oil and then season it with salt and pepper.

Roasting:

  • Place the turkey breast on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven for about 90-120 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Baste occasionally with the pan juices.

Resting:

  • Once cooked, remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute.

Serving:

  • Slice the turkey and serve.
