Paleo Roasted Turkey Breast With Herb Butter Recipe

Ingredients

4-5 pound bone-in turkey breast

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage

1 tablespoon fresh or 1 teaspoon dried thyme

1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon salt

1 garlic clove, finely chopped

1 cup chicken or turkey broth

Preparation

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Gently melt the butter with the herbs, salt and pepper. Remove from heat and add the garlic. Gently pull the skin away from the turkey meat and drizzle a little bit of butter under the skin. Drizzle or brush the rest of the butter over the top of the turkey.

Roast the turkey uncovered in a roasting pan for 45 minutes. Then, add the broth to the pan and continue to roast until the temperature of the turkey reaches 165-170 F, about another 45 minutes. If the skin on the top of the turkey begins to get too dark, lightly cover it with foil.

Remove the turkey from the oven and pour any liquid into a saute pan. Simmer the liquid on the stove for several minutes to reduce the liquid slightly. Slice the turkey off the bone, drizzle turkey juices on top. Serve warm or at room temperature.
