2. – In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.

3. – Rub the garlic-lemon mixture all over the turkey breast, making sure to get it under the skin as well.

4. – Place the turkey breast in a roasting pan and roast for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

Notes

For a crispy skin, you can broil the turkey for 2-3 minutes at the end. Baste the turkey with the pan juices halfway through cooking. Leftovers make great sandwiches or can be used in soups and casseroles.
