Ingrediënten

Yield: 6 servings

  • ¼ cup softened butter
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt-free garlic and herb seasoning blend such as Mrs. Dash
  • Salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 3-pound turkey breast with skin
  • 1 teaspoon minced shallot
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 splash dry white wine
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons half-and-half

Instructies

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2: Herb Butter and Turkey Prep

  • In a bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, paprika, Italian seasoning, garlic and herb seasoning blend, salt, and black pepper.
  • Place the turkey breast with the skin side up into a roasting pan.
  • Loosen the skin with your fingers and brush half the herb butter mixture over the turkey breast and underneath the skin.
  • Reserve the remaining butter mixture.
  • Tent the turkey breast loosely with aluminum foil.

Step 3: Roasting

  • Roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour.
  • Baste the turkey breast with the remaining herb butter mixture.
  • Return to the oven and roast until the juices run clear, and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast (not touching the bone) reads 165 degrees F (65 degrees C), about 30 more minutes.
  • Let the turkey breast rest for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Step 4: Shallot Infused Gravy

  • While the turkey is resting, transfer pan drippings to a skillet.
  • Skim off excess grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the skillet.
  • Place the skillet over low heat; cook and stir shallot in turkey grease until opaque, about 5 minutes.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet with shallot and whisk in white wine, scraping any browned bits of food from the skillet.
  • Whisk in chicken stock and flour until smooth.
  • Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened.
  • For a creamier, lighter gravy, whisk in half-and-half.
