How to reheat a precooked turkey breast

Turkey Breast Recipe

A turkey breast is a meal on its own. It doesn’t have to be confused with Thanksgiving leftovers, salads made from the leftover stuffing, or sandwiches made from cold slices of turkey.

Equipment

  • 1 Pan
  • 1 Oven

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 2 teaspoons dried rosemary minced
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3 to 8 pound turkey breast

Instructions

  • Turn on the 375 degree oven. Put the turkey breast skin-side up in a 9x13 pan that has been gently oiled or on the rack of a roasting pan.
  • Olive oil, paprika, oregano, rosemary, salt, thyme, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder should all be combined to form a paste in a small basin.
  • With your finger, loosen the skin so you can pour some of the spice mixture underneath. As much of the meat as you can should be covered, so smooth it out. Apply the leftover spice mixture on the turkey breast skin using your fingers.
  • The turkey should be cooked in the preheated oven for roughly 20 minutes per pound until it reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees. The thickest area of the breast's core should be the one to take the temperature. The amount of time needed to roast your turkey breast will depend on its size. You can cook boneless turkey breasts more quickly. For accuracy, use a meat thermometer.
  • Take the food out of the oven and loosely wrap it in aluminium foil. Once the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit, allow to rest for 15 minutes. Finally, cut and serve.
