Roasting your own turkey breast at home is easy, fast, affordable, and the quality won’t just rival your favorite deli, but will probably surpass it. Enjoy!

It’s a different freakishly small wooden spoon, actually. This is just a little spice spoon that isn’t freakish or small for that purpose. On the other hand... the ‘real’ freakishly small spoon was a long handled cooking/stirring spoon, the same length as the standard wooden spoons, but just with a freaky-little spoon-bowl on it. Sorry. But at least the memory of the other one is still fresh.....

This is the best recipe for roast turkey I have ever tried. I'm totally sold - cooked a whole breast and it hardly lasted a day. Moist and packed with flavor. I usually have to douse turkey leftovers with salt, pepper and whatever else comes under hand. Made a cold turkey on rye with just butter. Something so simple is just simply the best!

Everything is just perfect except that maybe as for my kids I'd rather ad even a bit less of a black papper because even an amount of it alone mentioned in this recipe is enough to make this dish spicy. Just to mention that I made it with just a raw piece of 1.5kg cut off of the whole 3kg turkey half breast, no skin, no bone.| Thank you so much for this recipe!

I have a turkey sandwich tip: I buy a can of cranberry sauce - I like the whole cranberry type but whatever - and freeze it in ice cube trays. When I make a turkey sandwich, or other types, I defrost/drain a little cube of cranberry sauce to spread on the sandwich. So good.

[@DianaAmericaRivero]

I use a really similar recipe but brine the breast for about 6 hours before cooking and then vacuum pack the slices with a few tablespoons of stock (carton kind) for at least a day before using (the drippings tend to gelatinize so that's a no-go unless you like head cheese-style deli slices)... succulent and glistening are the only words that come to mind.

@@ChiTownJerry : Really? Turkey is my favourite. And around here, I usually have (had since we went into lockdown a week ago) five others with us who have never declined a roast turkey dinner. Breath deep and take in the smell of roast turkey, summer savoury dressing, homemade cranberry sauce....... Now tell me you won’t pick up a turkey on your next grocery run. If you’re in the US, you can get just the breasts and I got one in Maine once that was the breasts and wings. Makes a mighty quick roast turkey dinner. We can always find the half breast portions here but full turkeys often need to be ordered from the specialty farms. Hey, you: stay safe; test negative; stay positive. Best wishes.

Great recipe. Here's mine - Prepare turkey breast. I like mine with mesquite seasoning. Fill the roasting pan with water halfway up the bird. Cook turkey. Cool the turkey in this liquid.
