Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. Rub 3 lbs boneless turkey breast with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, and 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme, coating evenly.
  2. Step 2: Place the turkey breast on a roasting pan and roast uncovered for 1 hour, basting every 20 minutes with pan juices.
  3. Step 3: Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup fresh orange juice, 1/2 cup cranberry sauce, 2 tbsp honey, and 3 minced garlic cloves. Simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes until the glaze thickens slightly.
  4. Step 4: During the last 15 minutes of roasting, brush the turkey breast generously with the cranberry orange glaze every 5 minutes.
  5. Step 5: Remove the turkey from the oven when internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing and serving with remaining glaze.
