Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs Turkey Breast boneless, skinless
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 0.5 tsp Dried Thyme
  • 0.75 tsp Salt
  • 0.5 tsp Black Pepper

Equipment

  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Small Bowl
  • Meat Thermometer

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Pat the turkey breast dry with paper towels, then rub it with olive oil, ensuring it is evenly coated.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper, then sprinkle the seasoning mixture all over the turkey breast.
Cooking
  1. Place the seasoned turkey breast on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  2. Once cooked, remove the turkey breast from the oven, loosely tent it with foil, and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Resting the turkey is crucial for juicy results. You can also add a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or rosemary after cooking for extra flavor and garnish.
