Instructions

  1. Mix all marinade ingredients together. Place the thawed turkey breast in a zip-lock bag. Pour the marinade over the turkey. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into all parts of the turkey breast. Place in the refrigerator for 6 hours or overnight.
  2. When you are ready to cook the turkey breast, remove it from the refrigerator and preheat your oven to 325F. Place the turkey breast on a roasting rack over an aluminum foil lined roasting pan or sheet pan and place it in the oven. Roast for approximately 1 hour and 30 min, checking occasionally to be sure it isn’t browning too quickly. If it looks like it is getting too dark, loosely tent it with aluminum foil. The turkey is done when a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reads 170F.
  3. When the turkey is done, remove it from the oven and tent it loosely with foil. Let it rest for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • *Garam Masala is an Indian spice blend that can typically be found at any specialty spice shop.
