Ingredients
1 5-6 lb turkey breast
4 Tbsp of butter
1 Tbsp of salt
2 tsp of cracked black pepper
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. (Make sure the oven rack is on the lowest position in the oven or the turkey will burn if it is too close to the top.)
Melt butter. Place the thawed turkey breast on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Baste the turkey with the melted butter. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Cook for 20 minutes at 450 degrees. Turn the oven to 325 degrees and let it cook for approximately 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 155 degrees.
Let the turkey rest 15 minutes before carving. (The turkey will continue to cook as it rests.)
