Ingredients
Turkey:
- ½ cup coarsely chopped carrots
- 2 celery ribs , coarsely chopped
- ½ white onion , sliced
- 2-3 garlic cloves , thinly sliced
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 3-4 pound boneless whole turkey breast
- 1 cup dry white wine
Rub:
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 ½ teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Gravy:
- ½ cup low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth , optional
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ¼ cup flour
Instructions
- Coat the inner pot of a slow cooker with cooking spray or line with a slow cooker liner. Place the carrots, celery, onion, garlic in a layer on the bottom. Place the fresh herbs over the veggies and then pour in the white wine. Set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the ingredients for the rub, including the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme and olive oil. Stir to make a paste. Rub this all over the top of the turkey breast in a thick lather.
- Place the turkey breast on top of the veggies and herbs.
- Cook on low for 6 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Sizes of the turkey breast and exact temperature of “low” on slow cookers vary, so please double check using a digital meat thermometer.
- Remove the turkey breast and set on a plate tented with aluminum foil to rest.
- Using oven mitts, carefully pour the liquid and turkey drippings out of the slow cooker pot through a fine mesh sieve into a measuring cup. If liquids do not measure 2 cups, add additional chicken or vegetable broth. Discard solids. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour to make a paste (roux).
- When lightly browned, whisk in the turkey drippings liquid. Keep whisking until the mixture has thickened. Remove from the heat.
- Slice the turkey breast and top with pan gravy.
