Roast Turkey Breast with Lemon-Thyme Rub
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon lemon peel
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 (2-1/2 to 3-1/2-pound) BUTTERBALL® All Natural Boneless Turkey Breast Roast
Directions
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
- In a small bowl, stir together butter, thyme, lemon peel, and salt until well combined.
- Pat roast dry. Rub butter mixture on roast to coat, including under skin.
- Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest portion registers 170°F about 1 hour and 20 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 375°F; bake until skin is golden brown and crisp, 5 to 6 minutes more. Let stand for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
- Tip: The butter mixture can be combined the night before. Leftover can be used on salad for lunch the next day.
