How to achieve a golden even roast turkey breast

Ingredients:
1 turkey breast (2-3kg)
Olive oil or melted butter
Sea salt
Black pepper
Fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, sage)
1 lemon, sliced and wedged
4-5 cloves of garlic

PREPARATION

The night before you plan on roasting the turkey, remove its packaging. Dab it dry and place and place on a tray in the refrigerator to dry overnight. Many may have forgotten or skip this important step, as it ensures the skin dries out prior to cooking.

When ready to roast, let the turkey breast sit out of the refrigerator for an hour. Preheat the oven to 180-200ºC (~360ºF).

ROASTING THE TURKEY BREAST

Place herbs of your choice onto the roasting dish.

Drizzle the turkey breast with olive oil. Alternatively, you can brush melted butter to help it brown beautifully. 

Season it generously with sea salt and black pepper. Rub the seasoning across, ensuring an even coating. Place the breast on top of the herbs in the dish. Follow up with lemon slices and wedges around.

Roast the turkey breast for 30 minutes then lower the temperature to 150ºC and let it cook for a further 20 minutes per 500g (depending on the weight of the breast).

Place the turkey on a serving tray and let it rest (uncovered) for 30 minutes. Carve the meat into 1cm thick slices. Feel free to add fresh herbs for garnish.
