Ingredients

1 – 3.3 pound turkey breast roast, not frozen
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp poultry seasoning
Ground pepper
1/2 cup water
Fresh herbs: 2-3 sprigs each of rosemary, sage and thyme
1/4 cup melted butter

Tip: You can baste the turkey a few times with the pan juices while it’s roasting… it’s not necessary but I do think it makes for a more juicy and flavourful turkey roast.

Directions

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees.
Place the turkey roast on a rack inside a shallow roasting pan. Do not remove the netting.
Sprinkle the poultry seasoning over the top of the roast.
Generously season with ground pepper.
Drizzle the top with the oil.
Put about a 1/2 cup of water into the bottom of the roasting pan.
I also like to add fresh herbs to the bottom of the pan, they add beautiful flavour to the gravy.
Place the roast in the oven and roast for 2 1/2 hours, until the internal temperature is 165 degrees.
After the roast is cooked through, remove it from the oven and drizzle the melted butter over the top and let it rest for about 10 minutes before cutting.
Remove the netting then slice and serve!
