I left the skin on and rubbed the oil mixture under and over the skin, tender and moist! I will make this again.

I have made this at least 6 times. Each time it is wonerful. I also keep the skin on. I have used boneless breasts in the past. We supplement the whole turkey on thanksgiving, or as a stand alone. It makes a nice pan gravy with the drippings. Not a lot of gravy, but great flavor.
