"Rotisserie" Roasted Turkey Breast - 1g Carb
Yield: Varies based on weight of turkey, 6-ounce serving size
From: Diabetes Cookbook for Dummies
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 turkey breast, 6 to 7 lb, with skin
4 Tbsp lemon pepper
1 Tbsp ground sage
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Rub the olive oil into the
turkey breast. Place the turkey breast in a roasting pan with
a rack. (If you don’t have a rack, roll up 6 balls of foil and
then place under the turkey in the roasting pan to elevate the
turkey breast.) To get a rotisserie-like final product, you need
to make sure the turkey doesn’t sit in any fat as it cooks. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon pepper and ground sage.
Sprinkle the combined seasonings evenly over oiled turkey breast.
Place the roasting pan in the oven. Cook for 45 minutes at
400 degrees. Then reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees
to finish cooking, approximately 1-1/2 hours, depending on the
size of your bird. Cook the turkey until it reaches an internal
temperature of 165 degrees with a meat thermometer.
