Roast Turkey Breast

---

I haven't tried it yet but it is currently cooking and smells wonderful. I didn't change anything to the recipe which is unusual for me...so we'll see. I also didn't measure the spices i just sprinkled them on.

Steps

---

Set the oven at 350 degrees.

---

If the turkey breast is wrapped in netting , cut the string from the top of the breast leaving all but the two ends uncovered.

---

In a shallow baking dish just large enough to hold the breast , place 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.

---

Set the breast in the pan and tuck the garlic under it.

---

Sprinkle the meat with salt , pepper , and chili powder or paprika.

---

Sprinkle the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil on top of the meat.

---

Roast the turkey for 45 minutes.

---

Add 1 / 3 cup of water to the pan , and continue roasting for 30 to 40 minutes , spooning the pan juices over the meat every 15 minutes , or until a meat thermometer inserted into the center registers 170 degrees.

---

Let the turkey stand for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
