Thyme-Roasted Turkey Breast

Ingredients

• 1 piece bone-in whole turkey breast (4 1/4 to 5 lb), thawed if frozen 1/2 cup apple juice or dry white wine
• 2 tablespoon chopped fresh or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoons paprika
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 2 each cloves garlic, finely chopped

Directions

1. Heat oven to 325°F. On rack in large shallow roasting pan, place turkey breast, skin side up. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of breast and does not touch bone.
2. Roast uncovered 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix remaining ingredients.
3. Brush 1/3 of apple juice mixture over turkey. Roast 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes longer, brushing generously with apple juice mixture every 30 minutes, until thermometer reads 170°F.
4. Remove turkey from oven; cover with foil to keep warm. Let stand 15 minutes for easiest carving.
