Ingredients

• 3 pounds Turkey breast, boneless
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened honey substitute
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
• 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh thyme, optional for garnish

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Set aside.

Step 3

Rub the turkey breast with olive oil, then season evenly with the spice mixture.

Step 4

Place the turkey breast in a roasting pan, ensuring the skin side is facing up.

Step 5

Roast the turkey in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

Step 6

While the turkey is roasting, prepare the glaze by whisking together the unsweetened honey substitute, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and cayenne pepper in a small saucepan.

Step 7

Heat the glaze over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to simmer. Let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.

Step 8

After 60 minutes of roasting, brush the honey glaze evenly over the turkey breast, ensuring full coverage.

Step 9

Return the turkey to the oven and continue roasting for another 20-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the glaze has formed a glossy coat.

Step 10

Once done, remove the turkey from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Step 11

Garnish with fresh thyme, if desired, and serve.
