Resep Dada Kalkun Panggang

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a small bowl add the room temperature butter, garlic, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, and sage. Mix them together until they form a paste.
2. Dry the turkey breast very well with a paper towel on all sides. Use your hand to carefully separate the skin from the breast meat, leaving it intact on the sides, and creating a pocket to fill with the herb butter.
3. Spread about 1/3 of the herb butter under the skin. Spread the remaining herb butter on top of the skin and all over the exterior of the turkey breast.
4. Place the turkey breast in a greased deep casserole dish or roasting pan. Transfer the dish to the oven and roast the turkey for about 1 hr 30 min, or until the internal temperature reaches 165ºF. My turkey was ready right around 1 hr 20 minutes. Baste the turkey breast every 30 minutes with the pan drippings.
5. Begin to check the internal temperature of the turkey after 1 hour. If the top of the breast begins to brown too much before the internal temperature reaches its mark, loosely cover the turkey with foil as it bakes. Make sure to test the temperature in the thickest part of the breast, without touching the bone.
6. Let the turkey breast rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve with turkey gravy and your favorite sides. Enjoy!
