- 1 large turkey breast *
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon fresh sage , minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme , minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh flat leaf parsley , minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh Rosemary , minced

- Slather the top of the turkey breast with herbed mayonnaise. Place it on a rimmed baking sheet or in a roasting dish.
- Bake, uncovered, for 60-90 minutes. The exact time is going to vary based on the size of the turkey breast. If the mayonnaise starts to brown too much, loosely cover with a piece of aluminum foil. Bake until the center registers at 165°F.

Notes
- *packages usually come with a pack of 2, so cut them apart and freeze one or make both, but double the mayonnaise topping. One breast is usually enough to feed 2-3 people They are big!
- How to Make Quick Turkey Gravy:
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter with 2 tablespoons flour in a small skillet. This makes a roux. Whisk until a paste forms and it browns slightly.
- Add 2-4 tablespoons pan drippings and 2 cups turkey or vegetable broth. Simmer and whisk until smooth and thick.
- Season with salt and pepper. You can also add a small amount of white wine right before serving for extra layers of sophistication.
