Ingredients

  • 1 whole turkey breast on the bone (6 to 7 pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Dry Rub:

Gravy:

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Coat large roasting pan with nonstick vegetable-oil cooking spray. Rub turkey on all sides with olive oil and lime juice.

Dry Rub: Mix onion salt, chili powder, dried oregano, cumin, garlic powder, allspice and cayenne in small bowl. Rub 1 1/2 tablespoons mixture over turkey.

Roast turkey in the oven for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours or until the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F on instant-read thermometer. Remove turkey to a warm place; let stand 10 minutes.

Gravy: Pour off all but 2 tablespoons drippings from roasting pan. Sprinkle flour and 1/2 teaspoon of remaining dry rub over bottom of roasting pan; cook over medium-high heat, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan, for about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in chicken broth until smooth; cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Strain gravy through sieve into gravy boat; keep warm.

Cut off each 1/2 of the turkey breast from the bone. Wrap one 1/2 and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 4 months, for later use. Slice other 1/2 of turkey breast and serve with the gravy, and mashed potatoes, if desired.

    This was great. I rubbed it on a turkey london broil, put it in an aluminum pan and covered it. I cooked it in the oven at 350 degrees until the thermometer read 165 and let it sit for 15 min. Juicy and tender.

    Very tasty recipe and extremely easy to prepare. Will never roast another turkey breast with any other seasoning! Even the kids loved it!
