Instructions
1
Prep
Pat the turkey breast dry, place in a roasting dish, and rub with olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, chopped sage, salt, and pepper.
2
Roast
Roast at 375°F (190°C) for 45 to 55 minutes, basting once halfway, until a thermometer reads 165°F and juices run clear.
3
Deglaze
Set turkey aside, place the dish over medium heat, add chicken stock, and scrape browned bits for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly reduced.
4
Rest
Let the turkey rest loosely tented for 15 minutes so juices redistribute.
5
Plate
Carve the breast against the grain, spoon pan juices over, and finish with a squeeze of lemon.
