Oven Roasted Turkey Breast

This Oven Roasted Turkey Breast is juicy, herbaceous, and the best alternative to a whole turkey for smaller holiday celebrations.

Slow Cooking: Instead of cooking meat quickly at a high temperature, this method  trusts a lower temperature (usually around 350ºF-375ºF) to cook the meat  from the inside out over several hours. In the end, you’ll have a  flavorful, tender, and juicy piece of meat without needing to baste,  brine, or inject extra fat or seasonings.
