Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Rub 3 pounds boneless turkey breast with 3 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper, coating evenly.
Step 2: Place the turkey breast in a roasting pan and roast uncovered for 60-70 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, basting occasionally with pan juices for moistness.
Step 3: Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine 1 cup fresh cranberries, 1/2 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cranberries burst and the glaze thickens.
Step 4: Remove the turkey from the oven and brush the cranberry glaze generously over the surface. Let the turkey rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving with remaining glaze.
