This recipe roasts a turkey breast fillet with a thyme-and-garlic marinade. It can be prepared ahead and stored in the freezer for use over several weeks. The cold slices also make a popular late-night snack.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Marinate the turkey

10 min

Rub the turkey breast fillet with olive oil, thyme, garlic, lemon juice, grated lemon zest, salt, and black pepper.

2

Chill the turkey

20 min

Wrap the turkey fillet and refrigerate it for 20 minutes.

3

Roast the turkey

45 min

Roast in an oven preheated to 190°C / 375°F for 45 minutes, turning once, until the internal temperature indicates that it is fully cooked.

4

Rest and slice

10 min

Let the turkey rest for 10 minutes after removing it from the oven, then slice thinly.

Reminder

Let the turkey rest before slicing; otherwise, its juices will run out and the meat will be dry.
