Herbed turkey breast

10 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¼ cup Oil, olive
3 Garlic cloves; minced
1 teaspoon Rosemary, dried
1 Turkey breast, bone-in; (5 to 6 lbs.)

Directions

Combine first 3 ingredients. Gently loosen skin on turkey. Brush about one-third of olive oil mixture under skin; replace skin. Place in a lightly greased 11x7x1-½" baking dish; cover with foil.

Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour. Uncover and bake 1 hour or until a meat thermometer reads 170 degrees, basting with remaining olive oil mixture every 15 minutes.

NOTE: A few drops of a browning-and-seasoning sauce, such as Kitchen Bouquet, added to the olive oil mixture helps the turkey get an even, golden color.
