SLICED TURKEY BREASTS WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Place each turkey breast steak between sheets of clear plastic wrap and pound lightly and evenly with a meat pounder or flat mallet to make the slices about 1/4-inch thick.
• Sprinkle the sliced turkey with salt and pepper.
• Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet large enough to hold the turkey in one layer, or use two smaller pans. Add the sliced turkey and the garlic, bay leaf and thyme. Cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, turning the pieces until lightly browned on both sides. Do not overcook.
• Remove the turkey slices to a warm platter. Leave the garlic, bay leaf and thyme in the pan. Add the wine to the skillet and cook over high heat, stirring to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom and sides of the skillet. Cook until it is reduced by half. Add the chicken broth and boil briskly until reduced by half.

HERB ROASTED TURKEY BREAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove the turkey breast from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature. Cut 3 pieces of kitchen twine and set aside.
• Add the butter, parsley, lemon zest, thyme, onion powder, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to a small bowl. Use a fork or a rubber spatula to incorporate all of the ingredients into the butter. Set aside.
• Pat the turkey breast dry. Using clean hands, starting at one end of the breast, slide your fingers under the skin to create a pocket between the meat and the skin. Use your hands to transfer the butter into the pocket and smooth the butter into an even layer.
• Use the kitchen twine to tie the turkey horizontally in 3 places. This will help the turkey breast cook evenly and remain juicy. Flip the turkey breast so that it is skin-side down. Drizzle it with 1 teaspoon olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Flip the turkey over and repeat the same seasoning process.
• Arrange the onion slices on a small rimmed baking sheet. Pour 1/3 cup water into the baking sheet and place the turkey breast on top of the onions. Transfer to the oven and roast for 1 hour. Remove the turkey from the oven and baste it with the butter and juices from the baking sheet. Continue to roast until the internal temperature is 160 degrees F, another 20 to 25 minutes. Allow the turkey to cool for 15 minutes. (In this time the internal temperature will rise another 5 degrees.)
• Slice the turkey and serve it with the roasted onions.
