What is the best way to make boneless, skinless turkey breasts?

Question

I need a method that isn't overly complicated and fairly low overall in fat/calories. Some items that I have on hand and am trying to use up: sweet potatoes, onions, cream of mush and cream of chick soup, lipton onion soup mix, carrots, quinoa, millet, polenta, raisins. THANKS!

Answer 1

If the breasts are not brined already, brine them. To brine, add some poultry seasoning and honey (optional) to a brine solution. The solution should be about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of salt per gallon of water. Non-iodized salt would be best. Have enough brine to completely cover the turkey. Let turkey sit in brine for about 3 hours in the fridge.

Coat the bottom of a roasting pan with light olive oil. Cover bottom of pan with chunked up onions and carrots. Season as desired, possibly add the onion soup mix with about 1/3 the normal amount of water. Brush the breasts with a little light olive oil.

Cook turkey for normal amount of time at normal temp, but have covered with lid or foil for about 2/3 of the time.

Bake the sweet potatoes on the side.

You can serve up the carrots and onions as a veg if you want. You can use the pan drippings/onion soup as a sauce/gravy. You might want some other less starchy veggie as a side, either a salad or something else you prefer.

Answer 2

Best way we've found for these is in a slow cooker, with chicken broth for moisture, as turkey breast will tend to be very dry with most other methods. We have even put dressing in a foil wrap and bake with the breast.

Answer 4

I like to wrap the turkey in bacon, (use turkey bacon for low fat). Put it in a crock pot with potatoes and carrots and let it go. I use this recipe for wild turkey and it rocks. (season to taste with salt and pepper of other spices as desired).
