Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Turkey breast
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • 4 Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 2

Place the turkey breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the turkey, making sure to coat all surfaces.

Step 3

Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and let the turkey marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours for a more intense flavor.

Step 4

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Once the grill is hot, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent the turkey from sticking.

Step 5

Remove the turkey breasts from the marinade and place them on the grill. Discard any remaining marinade.

Step 6

Grill the turkey for about 10-12 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.

Step 7

Once fully cooked, remove the turkey from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Step 8

Serve the grilled turkey breasts with your favorite Paleo-friendly side dishes.
