- 5 tablespoon unsalted butter softened
- 2 tablespoon fresh sage finely chopped
- 2 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ tablespoon garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 3 lb boneless turkey breast
Preheat oven to 350F and adjust the rack to the middle.
In a small bowl add butter, salt, garlic, sage and ground pepper. Mix well to combine.
Place turkey on a lightly greased baking sheet or roasting pan and pat dry.
Rub butter all over the top of the turkey breast and cook until an internal temperature registers 165F (about 60-70 minutes) on an instant-read thermometer and the juices run clear.
Tent with foil and allow it to rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Use paper towels to pat dry and remove moisture before seasoning for crispier skin and to help the butter to stick better.
- Using room temperature butter makes it easier to spread evenly over the top of the turkey.
- Use an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast; it should reach 165F.
- Use the bottom of the pan drippings to make quick gravy or drizzle over the sliced turkey.
