Notes
- A bone-in turkey breast will need about 10 minutes longer to cook.
- A bone-in turkey breast will need about 10 minutes longer to cook.
- For fresh herbs, I use a combination of rosemary, sage, thyme, and parsley to total 1 tablespoon. Our grocery stores sell a small package of "poultry herbs" which has a mixture (they're great added to stuffing too).
- Do not overcook. Check the turkey breast early, air fryers can vary (and the shape of the turkey breast can also change the cooking time slightly).
- Use a thermometer to ensure the turkey reaches 165°F. I remove the turkey breast from the air fryer when it reaches about 158°F-160°F as the temperature will continue to rise as it rests.
- Rest 5-10 minutes before slicing. Be sure to remove it from the air fryer basket while resting.
