This marinated turkey breast roast is a perfect choice if you want a juicy and flavorful main dish for any special occasion. The marination process helps to tenderize and infuse the turkey breast with amazing flavors. Serve it with your favorite sides for a memorable meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 turkey breast roast (4-5 pounds)
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, dried rosemary, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk well to create the marinade.
  2. Place the turkey breast roast in a large zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it. Close the bag tightly, ensuring the marinade covers the entire roast. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.
  3. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
  4. Remove the turkey breast roast from the marinade and transfer it to a roasting pan. Discard any excess marinade.
  5. Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil and roast the turkey breast for about 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  6. Remove the foil and continue roasting for another 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
  7. Once cooked, remove the turkey breast from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
  8. Slice the turkey breast roast and serve it with your favorite sides. Enjoy!
