A little different from most roast turkey recipes - a great recipe for any special occasion. If you don't have reisling wine, any good white wine can be used.
Ingredients:
1 (7 1/2 lb) turkey breast (bone-in)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 tablespoon butter, softened
3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
3 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
2 oranges, thinly sliced
2 lemons, thinly sliced
vegetable oil cooking spray
1 large onion, quartered
3 cups riesling wine
Directions:
1. Sprinkle turkey breast evenly with salt and pepper.
2. Stir together butter, rosemary, and sage. Loosen skin from turkey without detaching it; spread butter mixture under skin. Arrange one-fourth of orange and lemon slices over butter mixture. Gently pull skin over fruit. Coat with cooking spray. Place turkey in an aluminum foil-lined baking pan coated with cooking spray. Place onion and remaining orange and lemon slices in pan. Drizzle with wine.
3. Bake at 325° for 2 hours and 15 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest portion registers 170°, basting every 30 minutes.
4. Cover loosely with aluminum foil coated with cooking spray to prevent excessive browning after 1 hour and 30 minutes, if necessary.
