TURKEY BREAST WITH CITRUS GLAZE
INGREDIENTS
6-8
pound whole turkey breast, bone in, rinsed
2-3
tablespoons chopped fresh herbs of choice, such as sage, marjoram,
or thyme
1
tablespoon olive oil or canola oil
Salt
and pepper to taste
1-2
cups canned chicken broth, as needed
Glaze:
1/4
cup dry white wine
1/4
cup packed brown sugar
2
tablespoons lime juice
2
tablespoons lemon juice
DIRECTIONS
Preheat
oven to 425 degrees.
Gently
slip your fingers under the skin of the breast, starting at the
meatier end, and gently loosen the skin without totally removing it.
Sprinkle
the herbs under the skin. Replace the skin.
Brush
the skin all over with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
In
a small bowl, mix together all of the glaze ingredients; set aside.
Place
the breast pointed side down, on a V-shaped rack set in a roasting
pan. Add the water or broth to the pan to keep the drippings from burning.
Place
the turkey in the oven and roast about 30 minutes or until the skin
just starts to turn golden.
Reduce
the oven temperature to 325 degrees and continue roasting 1-1/2 to
1-3/4 hours longer, depending on the size of the breast, basting with
the citrum glaze during the last 1/2 hour. The breast is done when
the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees.
Remove
the turkey from the oven, cover it loosely with foil and let it rest
at least 15 minutes before carving.
Makes
8 servings.
