Category: Turkey
Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
2 quarts apple cider or juice
1/2 cup kosher salt
1/3 cup honey
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1-1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
1 fresh rosemary sprig
2 large oven roasting bags
1 bone-in turkey breast (4 to 5 pounds)
1 tablespoon olive oil
In a Dutch oven, bring the first five ingredients to a boil. Cook and stir until salt and honey are dissolved. Stir in rosemary. Remove from the heat; cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until chilled.
Place a large oven roasting bag inside a second roasting bag; add turkey breast. Carefully pour brine into bag. Squeeze out as much air as possible; seal bags and turn to coat. Place in a roasting pan. Refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
Line the bottom of a large shallow roasting pan with foil. Drain turkey and discard brine; place on a rack in prepared pan. Pat dry.
Bake, uncovered, at 325 for 30 minutes. Brush with oil. Bake 1-1/2 to 2 hours longer or until a meat thermometer reads 170 degrees. (Cover loosely with foil if turkey browns too quickly.) Cover and let stand for 15 minutes before carving. Yield: 8 servings.
