When herbs are plentiful in my garden, I prepare this turkey recipe. The turkey stays moist in the slow cooker and is bursting with herb flavors. When I served this to our Bible study potluck group, everyone wanted the recipe! Ingredients:
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) chicken broth |
1 cup lemon juice |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 cup minced fresh sage |
1/2 cup minced fresh thyme |
1/2 cup lime juice |
1/2 cup cider vinegar |
1/2 cup olive oil |
2 envelopes onion soup mix |
1/4 cup dijon mustard |
2 tablespoons minced fresh marjoram |
3 teaspoons paprika |
2 teaspoons garlic powder |
2 teaspoons pepper |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 boneless skinless turkey breast halves (3 pounds each) |
Directions:
1. In a blender, combine the first 15 ingredients; cover and process until blended. Place turkey breasts in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag; add half of marinade. Seal bag and turn to coat; seal and refrigerate overnight. Pour remaining marinade into a bowl; cover and refrigerate.
2. Drain and discard marinade from turkey. Transfer turkey breasts to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Add reserved marinade; cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours or a thermometer reads 170°. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Yield: 14-16 servings.
