Directions
Kittencal’s Moist Oven Roasted Turkey Breast, Cooking time is only approximate for a 6-pound bone-in turkey breast, for a larger breast cooking time will need to be adjusted, whatever the size of turkey breast roast until a meat thermometer reads 160 degrees F, for perfect doneness a meat thermometer (instant or regular) should be used — for the very best flavor a turkey breast with the skin left on is an absolute must and the bone left in would be another plus — don’t forget to save the pan juices to make your favorite gravy or see my recipe#145064 — a 6-pound turkey breast should feed 4-6 people if you are serving more I suggest to make two or even three depending on how many people you are feeding, you may make all the breasts in the same roasting pan — NOTE for the best flavor and tenderness it is strongly advised to use a fresh only turkey breast not previously frozen then thawed , Nothing special or different, I made this for dinner tonight, but we haven’t eaten yet because I had to put the turkey back in the oven! I followed all of the instructions, the temperature was correct, but when I sliced into the turkey it was too pink near the bone! Maybe it has to do with the pan used to cook it in? Hopefully the extra time back in the oven will finish it without drying it out Fingers crossed! I will update after dinner!
