Ingredients:
  • 6-7 lb fresh turkey breast
  • Olive Oil
  • 1/2 cup water or dry white wine
  • Rosemary
  • Sea salt
  • Pepper
  • Low sodium bacon

Process:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Rinse turkey (inside and out) with cold water. Pat dry with paper towel.

Drizzle olive oil over turkey, brush to coat. Sprinkle rosemary liberally over entire turkey.  Add salt and pepper to taste.

Place turkey in shallow roasting pan and fill with 1/2 cup water or dry white wine.

Cook turkey approximately 2.5-3 hours.  Half way through cooking time cover turkey with 3-5 slices of bacon to keep moist.  Periodically baste turkey.  Turkey is  done when meat thermometer inserted into thickest part of breast reads 170 degrees.
