Dutch Oven Turkey Breast

Dutch Oven Turkey Breast

With Thanksgiving right around the corner, I couldn’t wait to unveil my super simple recipe for Dutch Oven Turkey Breast.

It’s deliciously tender and juicy and boasts the most beautiful golden-brown skin you've ever seen.  I've whipped up a creamy apple gravy that's a nod to fall's cozy, aromatic flavors.

Ingredients:Whole Turkey BreastBrining Mix + Water Butter  – Tandoori Spice MixYellow OnionCelery Ribs  – ApplesWhite Wine  – Full-Fat Plain Greek Yogurt Heavy Cream

Step 1: Dissolve the brining mix in 1 C hot water, then add 3 C cold water to chill it down quickly. Submerge turkey breast in brining liquid, then refrigerate (covered) for 12-36 hours.

Step 2: Remove turkey from brine, then pat dry with paper towels. Loosen the skin from the turkey breast by working your fingers between the meat and skin. Preheat oven to 350F.

Step 3: Layer Veggies. Add diced onions and celery to the bottom of the Dutch oven. Top with sliced apples. Pour on the wine or broth. Place dried turkey on top, breast side up.

Step 4: Mix Butter with tandoori spice mix. Sprinkle up to 2 additional tablespoons of tandoori spice mix all over the turkey breast and rub in. Rub compound butter under and on top of the skin .

Step 5: Roast for about 30 minutes at 350F uncovered, then remove from the oven. Baste with any juices/melted butter. Continue to roast until the breast reaches 160F. Let it rest.

Step 6: While the meat rests, bring the juices to a simmer and taste, seasoning with a touch of salt as needed. Turn off the burner and whisk in the Greek yogurt. Add the cream and butter.

Step 7: Slice the rested turkey thinly on the bias. Serve the turkey and gravy over basmati rice, sprinkling with green onions, cilantro, toasted almonds, and sultanas as garnish.

Delicious dutch oven turkey breast for your next holiday meal!
