I make this throughout the year, but always use cider instead of apple juice in the fall. Recipe came from Mr Food Cooks Like Mama . I usually cut back a tad on the soy sauce and I don't always thicken the juice with cornstarch. It's a nice twist to just baking a turkey breast. Servings is estimated. Cook time is rounded off. Hope you enjoy! Ingredients:
5 -6 lbs turkey breast |
1 1/2 cups apple cider or 1 1/2 cups juice |
1/2 cup apple cider or 1/2 cup juice |
1/4 cup soy sauce (may want to cut back some on this) |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°.
2. Place turkey breast skin side up, in a large roasting pan.
3. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes.
4. Remove turkey from oven and lower temperature to 325°.
5. In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups cider and soy sauce.
6. Pour mixture over turkey.
7. Cover and bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, basting turkey frequently with cider mixture.
8. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and remaining 1/2 cup cider.
9. Remove turkey from oven and stir cornstarch mixture into pan drippings.
10. Return turkey to oven and bake uncovered until sauce is thickened (15- 20 minutes).
11. Transfer turkey to serving platter and serve with the sauce.
