How to Make Honey Glazed Bone-In Turkey Breast Recipe

Ingredients

3 lb bone-in turkey breast

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/4 cup honey

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon melted butter

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Rinse the turkey breast and pat dry with paper towels. Brush the turkey breast with olive oil on both sides. Place in a shallow roasting pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake the turkey breast for 1 hour at 325 degrees.

While the turkey breast is baking, mix together the honey, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and butter in a small bowl.

After the turkey breast has roasted for one hour, take it out of the oven and baste the turkey on both sides. Roast the turkey breast for another 25 minutes or until juices run clear and the skin is golden brown.

Let stand for 15 minutes before slicing the turkey with a sharp knife on a cutting board for best results.

Makes 6 servings.
