Whenever we're in the mood for turkey, this is the recipe I use. It always wins compliments. (Leftovers would be great in the Asparagus-Turkey Pasta Toss recipe at left.) Ingredients:
6 tablespoons butter, cubed |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 tablespoon soy sauce |
1 tablespoon chopped green onion |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram |
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon rubbed sage |
1/4 teaspoon salt, optional |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1 boneless skinless turkey breast half (2 pounds) |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, combine the first nine ingredients. Bring to a boil; remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
2. Place turkey breast on a rack in a greased shallow roasting pan. Spoon some of the butter mixture over the top. Cover and bake at 325° for 1-1/4 to 1-3/4 hours or until juices run clear and a thermometer reads 170°, basting often with butter mixture.
3. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Yield: 6 servings.
