Scale
- 8 lb. bone-in turkey breast
For the Rub:
- 2 tsp. salt
- 2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. coarse ground black pepper
For the Maple Glaze:
- 4 tbs. duck sauce
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 3 tbs. cider vinegar
- 1 tsp. chili garlic sauce
- 1/2 tsp. salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven 325 degrees F.
- Mix the ingredients for the glaze and divide between two bowls. Place one bowl aside to server alongside the meal.
- Clean and pat dry the turkey breast.
- Mix the rub for the turkey in a small bowl, and rub it all over the prepared turkey breast.
- Place the turkey breast in a large cast iron frying pan lined with parchment paper and place in the oven to cook for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, brush with turkey breast with the prepared glaze.
- Repeat this process of brushing with the glaze every 30 minutes while cooking. Discard any remaining glaze that you have used to brush the turkey during cooking.
- The cooking time should be about 15-18 minutes per pound or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. at the thickest part of the meat using an instant-read thermometer.
- The skin should turn a beautiful golden color when the turkey breast is done.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let the turkey breast rest for about 15-20 minutes before carving. Remember to use a sharp knife for carving to get beautiful slices with the skin still attached.
- Server alongside the reserved glaze and your favorite sides. Enjoy!
