By cooking a turkey breast instead of a whole bird, you will not only save time, but you will have more meat than with a comparably sized whole turkey. This delicious glaze also works well with pork roast.

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees. Rub the turkey breast with olive oil, thyme, and sage. Season generously with Kosher salt and pepper. Place turkey on a rack in a roasting pan large enough to accommodate it. Roast for 1 ½ to 2 ¼ hours or until internal temperature reaches 155 degrees (temperature will continue to rise, just make sure you reach 165 degrees for safety), remove the turkey from oven and tent with foil. Allow resting at least 10 minutes before slicing.

Meanwhile make the glaze:

  • Place all the glaze ingredients together in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir the mixture, turn down the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. At this point, the cranberries will have all broken open. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • 30 minutes before the roast is done brush with glaze. Repeat the procedure every 10 minutes until the roast is done.
  • 20 minutes before the roast is done, check the temperature by inserting an instant-read thermometer into the meat.
  • Once plated serve with additional glaze if desired.

Notes

Note: If using a convection oven, reduce cooking time by 25%.
