Roasted turkey breast is a flavorful, lean protein popular in American cuisine, especially during holiday celebrations like Thanksgiving. Prepared by seasoning the turkey breast with a mixture of herbs, spices, and sometimes olive oil or butter, it is then roasted to achieve a tender texture and golden-brown exterior. Known for being a heart-healthy choice, turkey breast is low in fat and rich in essential nutrients such as B vitamins, selenium, and zinc, which support immune function and energy metabolism. It's also an excellent source of high-quality protein that aids in muscle repair and growth. However, the addition of butter or oil during preparation can slightly increase its fat content. Pairing it with nutrient-rich sides such as roasted vegetables or whole grains makes it a wholesome meal option.
